{"product_id":"spanish-missions-of-texas-byron-browne-9781540214324","title":"Spanish Missions of Texas","description":"After the conquest of Mexico by Hernan Cortes in the sixteenth century, conquistadors and explorers poured into the territory of Nueva Espana. The Franciscans followed in their wake but carved a different path through a harsh and often violent landscape. That heritage can still be found across Texas, behind weathered stone ruins and in the pews of ornate, immaculately maintained naves. From early structures in El Paso to later woodland sanctuaries in East Texas, these missions anchored communities and, in many cases, still serve them today. Author Byron Browne reconnoiters these iconic landmarks and their lasting legacy.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Byron Browne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 154021432X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540214324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Byron Browne","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43938201895167,"sku":"9781540214324","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ed2794b3-f203-400a-a16d-72c55540c5c9.jpg?v=1681434340","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spanish-missions-of-texas-byron-browne-9781540214324","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
