Estate sale find, vintage copy of the Hand Book of the Mission Inn, Frank A. Miller, Inc., Riverside, California.
The Mission Inn, is a historic landmark hotel in downtown Riverside, California and is generally considered the largest Mission Revival Style building in the United States.
The property began as a quaint adobe boarding house called "The Glenwood Cottage", built in 1876. In February 1880, Miller's son Frank Augustus Miller purchased the hotel and land from his father. It blossomed into a full-service hotel in the early 1900's due to California's economic citrus boom and warm weather, attracting wealthy travelers and investors from East Coast and Europe.
In 1902, Frank changed the name to the "Glenwood Mission Inn" and started building, in a variety of styles, until he died in 1935.
