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 has been fulfilled. 116 color photographs; 133 duotones; 14 black and white illustrations.
