Book Description
Filled with an array of surprises, the book features historically accurate artwork exclusively drawn by artist
Chuck Fischer, who combines real photography with his own painting to create a masterpiece in each double-page
spread. The spread includes pops of both house and garden, and informative booklets about each estate's house,
gardens, and history.
Among the fabulous pop-ups are elaborate full-scale replicas of Biltmore and Monticello, as well as a moveable
carousel showing each season in the famed Winterthur gardens. A concertina allows a see-through of the Governor's
Palace at Colonial Williamsburg.
