Like Rizzoli's Stables and Hunt Country Style and At Home in the American Barn, Ranches celebrates a lifestyle that, at its essence, is one tied to the land – where horses and cattle graze, where crops are planted and harvested – and at the center of all this is warm domesticity, home, embodied in the ranch house. This book will focus on architecture and interiors of the homes at each ranch's center, and will be of interest to home owners, architects, and interior designers.

Ranches presents the best California ranches, from the historic Rancho Camulos of 1842 – the purported home of the heroine of Helen Hunt Jackson's Ramona – to working ranches and small ranches, to trophy ranches or "gentleman's ranches," such as the home of Will Rogers, in Pacific Palisades, and Jack London's Beauty Ranch, in the bucolic Glen Ellen on Sonoma Mountain.
