1905 CALIFORNIA History 1ed Mexico Missions Architecture GOLD American West
Leigh Irvines “History of the New California” is a fascinating early 20th-century history of California. While the majority of this work is biographical sketches of prominent Californian figures, it covers early state ordinances, building plans, foundations of schools and political departments, sale and purchase of state land, establishment and amendments to the California constitution, and much more. One particular interesting chapter found in this work is Irvines commentary on architecture in the American west through the lenses of natural resources, climate, and the influence of Mexican missions.
Numerous full-page portraits and engravings scattered throughout this two-volume 1905 first edition.
