Summary

This charming volume is the first history of Alcatraz to be told through its architecture. In friendly illustrations and accessible text, authors of Golden Gate Bridge: History and Design of an Icon Donald MacDonald and Ira Nadel give us an quirky account of the island and its architecture, from its earliest discovery and use as a military fortress, through its later occupation by American Indians in the 70s ( in which MacDonald participated), to its current status as a National Park and bird sanctuary. We will use the same attractive and distinctive package as Golden Gate Bridge.
