Summary

There are hundreds of lodges, inns and hotels in America's West, but only a handful of historic Great Lodges. Great Lodges were constructed in the Western United States from the turn of the century through the 1930s. Today, they offer more than just a place to stay, but an opportunity to relive the past. Through stunning color photographs, historical pictures, rare architectural drawings and a well-documented text, Great Lodges of the West uncovers the story of twelve of the West's most significant historical lodges.
