LA FONDA THEN & NOW Coffee Table Book

For 100 years, Santa Fe’s La Fonda on the Plaza hotel has stood as a venerable nexus of history and hospitality. The multilayered life of the hotel, from the early Fred Harvey years to present day, is chronicled in our own coffee table book “La Fonda Then & Now.” The book is richly illustrated with 224 pages of vintage archival and contemporary images, many of them never seen before.
