Rattlesnake Blues: Dispatches from a Snakebit Territory (Wild West Volume 8)

They all have this sense. None of the buildings profiled in this book looks as though it could have been mass produced. And each exerts an emotional pull on the senses that is difficult to explain, but easy to observe. Some of the buildings have architectural pedigrees dating to Territorial days and before. Others are remarkable for the role they're playing in the country's urban-design revolution. But what they have in common is this: they have colorful stories to tell -- stories that reveal the essence of Arizona's spirit. Plan roadtrips to see them all; you'll visit every part of the state, and you'll learn to recognize the work of gifted architects who have left their marks on Arizona.
