(Built between 1839 and 1842, the domed structure of Iowa ...)
Built between 1839 and 1842, the domed structure of Iowa City's Old Capitol served as the third territorial capitol and the first state capitol of Iowa. In 1857, when the state government was moved to Des Moines, Old Capitol became the first building of the new University of Iowa. It remains today the centerpiece of this handsome campus. The story of its history and restoration, told in this elegantly illustrated book, is an intriguing account of historical architectural detection.Using primary sources, including manuscripts, vouchers, account books, newspaper stories, correspondence, and documents from the National Archives and Iowa repositories, Margaret Keyes portrays the major events of the total history of Old Capitol since its site was determined.

(The architecture of houses in Iowa City represents many e...)
The architecture of houses in Iowa City represents many ethnic and cultural groups and is characteristic of all the major architectural styles of the nineteenth century, the century of its development. Tracing the development, Dr. Keyes ranges from the earliest houses through the Colonial, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Anglo-Italian, Franco-American, and Neo-Jacobean styles, with illustrations of each and descriptions of distinguishing features. Carefully researched, and having a glossary of architectural terms, the book is an ideal guide to distinctive houses in Iowa City.
