The present volume stands as the authority on the old missions of
California. Indispensable as a guide-book, and is filled with most
valuable material.--_San Francisco Argonaut._ The author has devoted
careful study to the matter of architecture, and to the furniture and
decorations of the historic and ancient structures; but, in addition
to this, the work is made interesting by the relative matters that
have a more human interest.--_St. Louis Globe-Democrat._
