Description:
In near fine shape, with tight binding and unbumped corners. Former owner's name written in upper right corner of frontispiece and the page after it. Dust jacket shows a little wear, but the book is unaffected. Al Manucy (1910-1977) was a historian for the National Park Service for 33 years. A native of St. Augustine, he did historical research on Spanish colonists and especially their architecture. This book was his second major work on Spanish colonial buildings, and it includes detailed information about specific structures and stylistic conventions of the Spanish colonists and their descendants. An engaging writer and a skilled artist, he explains how and why various structures were built the way they were. The information in the book is of special use to anyone trying to interpret historic or archaeological sites, especially those trying to carry out reconstructions.
