In this beautifully illustrated volume, author-photographer Ruscin documents with color and sepia photographs and his own reflections the intense dedication needed for the building of all the California missions, never disparaging Fray Junipero Serra's efforts. In his travels, he met and spoke with descendants of the missionaries' converts, and he highlights the artistic and cultural contributions the indigenous builders and decorators of the frontier communities made to mission life. Oversize: 13.25x11.25
