In 1905, meticulous researcher, astute observer, and wonderful writer, George Wharton James, published his 25-year study of the 21 California Missions. Of the dozens of that era’s popular Mission books, In and Out of the Old Missions of California remains a valued resource for those interested in the subject. This faithful reissue of that volume (with original page numbers retained to facilitate citations)contains all that made it unique: • Generously illustrated chapters, with images rarely seen elsewhere • Detailed discussions and illustrations of the decorative art, silver and brassware, and • A special chapter on the nine asistencia (sub-missions) The eBook contains all 142 of the original black and white phtographs and illustrations. This book is an essential early reference study and an enduring treasure for today's reader.
