Williamsburg Before and After: The Rebirth of Virginia's Colonial Capital -  George H. Yetter

the rebirth of Virginia's colonial capital

KORTE INHOUD

George Yetter's informative text describes why Williamsburg was founded and flourished during the colonial period. He traces the deterioration that followed when the capital moved to Richmond in 1780, and concludes with the exciting story of how Williamsburg's past was saved. Old photographs, daguerreotypes, watercolors, sketches, and maps capture "pre-restoration" Williamsburg. Lovely color "after" photographs show that the vision and dream have been fulfilled.
