5-0 out of 5 stars About This Book...
A handsome book from the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation: navy cloth over hardback boards with gold details and a sewn binding. With dustjacket.

192 pp. 69 b&w illustrations. Footnotes. Appendix. Index.

An 18th century copperplate illustration, discovered in Oxford in 1929, was used to guide the restoration and reconstruction of several Williamsburg buildings. This information was appreciated but a discovery was made when more copperplates which came to light in 1986 were linked to the 1929 Oxford copperplate.

This book pieces together the mystery of when, how, and why these copperplates were made. The authors link these illustrations to texts written (and to texts now lost) by one of the most prominent Virginians of this period, William Byrd II. Byrd (1674-1744) was a prominent plantation-owner, author, romantic scoundrel, and politician who is generally seen as the founder of the city of Richmond.

These images are of great diversity and shed light on the whole swath of the early American experience. Maps, portraits, elevations of buildings, city plans, panoramic views of cities, botanical drawings, drawings of animals, and more are woven into this book with skill by the authors. The result is a more developed understanding of Byrd as a literary figure and of the politics, science, and perceptions of the early Americans. Finally, the craft and beauty of many of these documentary images should be noted as well!

Born Elizabeth Bigley 10 October 1857 Eastwood (Canada West), United Province of Canada. Her parents, Dan and Annie worked a small farm in Eastwood. She had three sisters Alice, Mary, Emily, and a brother Bill. Her father worked for the Grand Trunk Railway as a section boss and was often away from the homestead. Betsy, as she was known to her family, was as known to daydream and tell fibs as a child. At the age of 13, Chadwick went to Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. There she opened a bank account with a dubious letter of inheritance from an "unknown" uncle in England and a small amount of cash. While there, Chadwick passed several worthless cheques to various merchants. In 1870, she was arrested in Woodstock for forgery. She was released due to her age and on the grounds of insanity. Following a three year absence from Eastwood, she returned to discover her sister Alice ma...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=351741 ... Read more
