Elegant Christmas decor from the decked-out homes of those who made political, business, and military history-Now updated with new photography and a new project.
Here is Christmas decorating, history,
architecture, and interior design wrapped in one sparkling package.
More than 300 gorgeous images provide a leisurely look
at historic house interiors magically decorated for Christmas.
Begin
with the foreword by Christopher Radko, famed re-creator of vintage
Christmas ornaments. Tour historic holiday homes from Filoli to C olonial
Williamsburg and look inside San Antonio's most beautiful house-the
Spanish Governor's Palace. Nearby in Midland, Texas, is the ranch-style childhood home of the Bushes-two future US presidents, a
first lady, and two state governors.
There is something for everyone,
from the modest dwelling of Canadian WW I flying ace Billy Bishop, to
the "castle" of Edsel Ford of Ford Motors fame, and decorating styles
from contemporary to period correct.
