[D]ense with images... spectacular contemporary color photographs...an important contribution to the understanding of both architectural production in the early 20th-century Southwest and Colonial Revival church architecture in America... Highly recommended. -- L. P. Nelson [A] beautiful book telling an appealing story. The drawings are particularly valuable in that they illustrate the evolution of several of the designs. -- Steven Kells, AIA Lehmberg's prose is admirably straightforward, as unpretentious as the buildings he describes... [T]he illustrations provide welcome proof of how well Meem's site-rooted designs have aged. -- Eve M. Kahn Comprehensive and enjoyable... adds another layer. [S]pellbinding...[T]he definitive historical read on the world-renowned Santa Fe style. -- Elisabeth A. Doehring
