Spires in the Sun Author Talk and Book Signing: San Marco Preservation Hall

Spires in the Sun features over 500 pages of stories of the oldest surviving wood-frame Episcopal churches in Florida. Built in the 1800s, when Florida was still the nation’s raw southeastern frontier, these churches breathed the romantic sensibilities of England’s stone parish churches into a new medium: wood. Together with their Carpenter Gothic counterparts elsewhere on the nation’s frontiers, they elevated the American wooden church to new heights of historicity, imagination, and beauty.
