from Chelsea Green Publishing Company
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:

California Romantica: Spanish Colonial and Mission-Style Houses

Customer Review:

I love looking at Spanish colonial architecture. I have a viceral reaction to it, as does/did Diane Keaton, who is also a Californian. I would love to look at each and every photo in this book but it's very very difficult because it is so huge and heavy. You can't hold it in your lap to enjoy the... more info
