For those unfamiliar with these dream palaces, intimate homes of repose and reflection, for the enjoyment of life and the living of it, the book serves at once as a revelation and an inspiration.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 720.92 Da Checked In Add Copy to MyList
