Excerpt from Mission Architecture as Exemplified in San Xavier Del Bac Including a Complete List of the Missions in the Southwest: Also a Bibliography of the Manuscripts Scripts and Works Pertaining to the Subject

I trust I have done well in selecting for study the greatest and finest of the missions, San Xavier del Bac. It is a Mission not generally known, and never before have any plans been drawn from it. For that matter, scarcely any of the missions have been studied to any great extent' although something has, at times, been written about them, especially the California Chain; but even in this case more with a view to general description, concerned with little or no architectural or archaeological study.
