Book Description
The Mansion has been the home of Virginia's governors since 1813. It has been burned, haunted, added to, diminished, decorated, cherished, abused, renovated, restored, explored, deplored, written about, and gossiped over for more than 160 years. Through my recounting human events--keeping the narrative subjective and personal rather than strictly historical--I hope you will sense the essence of what makes the Mansion Virginia's living legacy, the sum of contributions and personal experiences of a long and varied succession of occupants who have known the Mansion as home. I would like the romance of this beautiful old house and what has gone on within its walls to seep through these pages so that you and all Virginians will feel a part of its history. The Mansion has been home to us, but it belongs to all Virginians.-pgs. 1 & 2.
