DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from California, Romantic and Beautiful Romance and Beauty are words inseparably connected with California. It is impossible to dissever them. Many years ago Mrs. Cyril Flower (nee Lady Constance Rothschild) told me the following characteristic story of Joaquin Miller, the Poet of the Sierras. It was at the time when Mrs. Langtry was in the height of her fame and all London was anxious to meet her. The poet also was very popular in England, and Mrs. Flower planned a great reception at which these two were to meet as the guests of honour. Her salon was one of the gathering-places of the most brilliant men and women of Europe and the taste and fashion of the country assembled there. When Joaquin was personally notified by Lady Constance that she desired his presence, he coolly and nonchalantly asked her if he might appear dressed in a California miner's costume. She freely gave her gracious consent. The night of the function the servitor at the door was almost shocked into paralysis when Joaquin appeared clothed in red shirt, blue overalls, and high-heeled top-boots with his trousers legs thrust into them. He also wore his high-crowned, broad-brimmed sombrero. Haughtily he was bidden go to the back door. With equanimity he bade the "flunkey" tell Lady Constance that "Joaquin Mliller was at the door."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCalifornia Romantica features the most important, yet rarely seen, residential exemplars of the California Mission and Spanish Colonial styles, by such noted architects as George Washington Smith, Wallace Neff, Richard Requa, Lilian Rice, and Paul R. Williams, among others. From whitewashed stucco walls and cloistered patios to tile roofs and sumptuous gardens, each house shown is a rare masterpiece, splendidly appointed with authentic Monterey furniture, California tile, and Navajo rugs. Among the magnificent seaside estates, canyon villas, and courtyard bungalows shown is Diane Keaton’s former home in Beverly Hills, which she thoughtfully restored with noted designer Stephen Shadley, and for which she has been recognized as a committed preservationist. She brings her cinematic eye, a keen sense of natural drama, and a profound appreciation for the nuances of shadow and light to the elucidation of these buildings, through the selection of specially commissioned photography. Authoritative text by D. J. Waldie lucidly explicates the architecture and provides an intimate tour of a historic and distinctly Californian lifestyle.
