This charming volume is the first history of Alcatraz to be told through its architecture. In friendly illustrations and accessible text, give us an interesting account of the island and its architecture, from its earliest discovery and use as a military fortress, through to its later occupation by American Indians in the 70s ( in which MacDonald participated), to its current status as a U.S. National Park and bird sanctuary.
