This book tells the story of adobe, sun-dried brick houses, popular in the desert Southwest and California. It is a story that travels from Asia and North America to the Iberian Peninsula, from the history-filled Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe, New Mexico, to the homes of the famous inhabitants in the hills of Taos. It is a book that is both historical and cultural.
