This fully illustrated volume explores the exceptional
architectural legacy of Waxahachie, Texas. Beginning with the
landmark Ellis County Courthouse designed by James Riely Gordon,
the guidebook documents residential, commercial, and institutional
buildings - both large and small - as well as the individuals who
designed, built, and owned them. Styles, forms, architects,
builders, owners, and occupants are identified and described,
giving insight not only into the town's architectural riches and
building culture, but also into its economic and social history.
The authors offer new documentation for many buildings through
their use of original sources, including early newspapers and
mechanics' liens, and an extensive knowledge of the period design
books that were so popular with Waxahachie lumberyards.
Concentrating on the downtown and the older neighborhoods, the
Waxahachie Architecture Guidebook is an invaluable resource for
visitors, curious residents, and anyone studying the buildings and
architecture of Texas.
