Historic Sites and Houses

Historic sites and houses represent the essence of who we are. The preservation of our history through accurate interpretation is an important aspect of keeping these sites alive.

This book provides multiple interpretations of the same historic house and its evolution from deterioration to dismantlement and reconstruction at a new site and the importance of its current location to American history, as well as insight into the lives of the women involved in the history of the eras in which it was built and later reconstructed.
