San Antonio Architecture is the comprehensive catalog of the architecture inventory of the city. Complete with color illustrations, keyed maps, and informative essays, it is a must-have book for every armchair and on foot architectural, art, and community historian. Edited by Julius M. Gribou, AIA; Robert G. Hanley, AIA; and Thomas E. Robey, AIA; with architectural text written by Lewis F. Fisher and Maria Watson Pfeiffer. |
