Book Description
Newly revised and updated for 2016, this book provides the first complete story of one of California's most important historical and archaeological sites. It explores the story of the Mission and its people starting with the pre-European era, followed by the arrival of the Spanish and the start of the mission era, through secularization, decay, and then rebuilding. The book features over 70 historic photos, maps, and drawings, many previously unpublished. This is the engaging story of what is arguably the finest mission church in California, retaining most of the features that it had when it was finished nearly two centuries ago.

Book Description
The story is based on a fictional disaster that occurred in Peru on July 20, 1714. A rope bridge woven by the Incas on the road between Lima and Cuzco collapsed when five people were crossing it. They all fell into the river from a great height and were killed. Brother Juniper, a Franciscan friar who was about to cross the bridge himself, witnessed the tragedy. Being deeply pious, he saw in what happened a possible divine providence. Did the dead deserve to have their lives cut short in such a terrible way? The monk tries to learn as much as he can about the five victims, finding and questioning people who knew them. As a result of years of investigation, he compiles a voluminous book with all the evidence he has gathered that the beginning and end of human life are part of God's plan... The Bridge of San Luis Rey won the 1928 Pulitzer Prize for the Novel, and remains widely acclaimed as Wilder's most famous work. In 1998, the book was rated number 37 by the editorial board of the American Modern Library on the list of the 100 best 20th-century novels. Time magazine included the novel in its TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005.
