Drumleaf binding in paper wraps. Lauren Faulkenberry, Introduction: "In the summer of 2011, I traveled to historical sites in the southwest that inspired me because of the way they had been revived. The history and integrity of the buildings had been preserved in a way that now benefits the surrounding community. Often it seems that historical and cultural landmarks are preserved in a way that makes them more like museums - they become shells of the buildings they once were, and stand silent as tombs. But some of the sites I found on this tip have been resurrected - they maintain their histories while acting as a relevant and vibrant part of the community. I was moved by this transformation, and the people behind it. This book highlights eight locations that are a testament to the spirit of innovation and preservation." The sites Faulkenberry features: Pearl Brewery in San Antonio, TX; Ghost Ranch in Abiquiu, NM; Jingu Tea Garden in San Antonio; Turquoise Trail in Madrid, NM; Randall Davey Audubon Center in Santa Fe, NM; Salida Steam Plant in Salida, CO; Southwest School of Art in San Antonio; and Fuller Lodge in Los Alamos, NM.
