For generations of Virginians and visitors the landscape of the Old Dominion has represented something unique and symbolic. In conjunction with a landmark exhibition at the Virginia Historical Society, this beautifully produced volume brings together more than 250 paintings, drawings, prints, and photographs depicting the rich and varied history of the state through the eyes of the artists who have painted and photographed it.

The author "brings to life the courage, recklessness, heartbreak, and deprivation of the (Shenandoah) Valley Campaign and the battles to the east of the Blue Ridge" ("The Commercial Appeal"). 60 photos.

Includes titles on all subjects, some in foreign languages, later incorporated into Memorial Library.
