Description
From the James River Plantations to the Shenandoah foothills, Virginia’s Historic Homes and Gardens celebrates the legendary houses and landscapes of Old Dominion. Virginia natives, the authors trip all over the state to highlight the best of the famous and lesser-known homes. Including such national landmarks as George Washington’s Mount Vernon and Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, the book brilliantly illustrates the homes’ exteriors and interiors in addition to their gardens and landscaping. Historical details accompany the exquisite color photographs, together with useful information on each site’s location.
