In sixty-seven exquisite watercolors and drawings, nationally famous architect Eugene Aubry captures on paper the sensibilities, the memories, and the grace that evokes Galveston, especially for those who are BOI ("born on the island"). Commissioned by the Galveston Historical Foundation, these works of art are intended to enhance the visual record of the buildings and the unique local architectural style that so many have appreciated over the years.

Woodcock, professor emeritus of architecture and director emeritus of the Center for Heritage Conservation at Texas A&M University, "I find the drawings to be deeply appealing and evocative of the place and its architectural history. . . Fox shows how Aubry's drawings take us back to the earlier period-while yet maintaining the historical sense of change, the human ways of conversion of the old buildings to new purposes and needs and the natural decay, both the slow and steady erosion enacted by continuous moisture and salt air and the sudden ruination delivered by hurricanes like Carla and Ike."--Jimmie Killingsworth, author, Going Back to Galveston, ". . . addresses the history of the architect as a 'Born on the Island' artist, the unique history of Galveston, and the background to the preservation of its extraordinary collection of Victorian architecture . . .

This Bible has very ugly scrible throughout the text block. This is one of, if not the worst transaction that I have ever had on Ebay. So far I have no return shipping label and no help from Ebay. This could possibly be my last transaction after over 20 years of using the Ebay platform.
