Notes. and Bibliography. Roger George Kennedy (August 3, 1926 September 30, 2011) was an American polymath whose career included banking, television production, historical writing, and museum administration, the last as director of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History, before the Bill Clinton administration selected him to head the National Park Service in 1993. Michael Freeman (born 1945 is a British author, photographer and journalist. The first book giving him title-credit as a photographer, was published in a Time-Life series called The World's Great Cities. Freeman has had a long working relationship with the Smithsonian magazine, and has photographed 40 stories between 1978 and 2008. One of his main specializations has been culture, architecture and archaeology, and he has photographed and written many books on these. The Spanish government and religious orders established missions to convert existing populations to Roman Catholicism. Missions were located adjacent to established native settlements that also provided labor for mission construction and maintenance. Some mission communities were near dispersed agrarian communities, while others were in the center of the most densely formed native settlements. At the core of every mission community, regardless of its size, was a church building as its spiritual center. Often beginning as no more than a temporary shelter from which to celebrate mass, the church building and later support structures evolved over time as the population of converts grew and resources for construction became available. The architectural styles of Spanish Colonial missions were influenced by those popular in Spain and Europe at that time Gothic, Baroque, Plateresque, Mudéjar, Churrigueresque, Neoclassicism but their application in the Americas cannot be fit easily into any specific stylistic category. The local context of available materials, labor, and technical expertise challenged the Spanish frontier builders to find the expertise to interpret their foreign cultural expression. As a result, mission architecture evolved into a fusion of imported and indigenous expressions that are unique to each mission and best understood through the analysis of various architectural elements.
