"The interest which is shown to-day in the restoration and preservation of early mansions,
encouraged me to undertake this meagre story
of
Virginia
's oldest and most far-famed manor
houses, no State in the
Union
boasting such a
wealth of historic estates as this superb old Commonwealth,
towards which the rest of the country so proudly looks.
"Following that period of bravery and awe
during which the corner-stone of
America
was so firmly laid, came the more pleasing era of plantation
life, founded by men whose names are high
enrolled in the hook of history, and whose homes
were little kingdoms worthy of the sincere study
of our less picturesque generation, which may
in them relive that wonderful yesterday, forgetting
and regretting this later age in the
dreams and reveries born of a knowledge of how
the grandees lived in Colonial times.

Book #2
“Whereas, the early architecture of New England, and the neighborhoods of
New York
,
Philadelphia
,
and
Washington
, has been often and ably published, there has been for many years no
serious attempt to cover the rich field for inquiry and study in
Maryland
and
Virginia
. There
is no doubt of the importance to modern Colonial architecture of these old tidewater buildings,
for they represent the Colonial architecture of brick in contrast to the less pretentious frame buildings
of the north. The homes of
Maryland
and
Virginia
remain for us as the aristocrats of our early architecture, the
forefathers of the modern brick Colonial style.”
