Book Synopsis Virginia Beach by : Amy Waters Yarsinske
Download or read book Virginia Beach written by Amy Waters Yarsinske and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few would guess from looking at the resplendent Virginia Beach shoreline-its stretches of fine sand, sloping dunes, and rolling waves-that the city has experienced anything but peace and tranquility since the history of its native Chesapeake tribe collided with the ambition and vision of new European settlers on the colonial coastline. But turmoil and conflict, as well as progress and achievement, are all a part of the area's unique story. Virginia Beach: A History of Virginia's Golden Shore brings to life the people, places, and events that contributed to the city's celebrated reputation. Through stories and memories, readers are introduced to the varied citizens who called this land home, including such characters as Sarah Offley who married three of early Virginia's most powerful settlers, and to the city's illustrious visitors. This volume also details, in both word and image, the influential resort age, which began in 1880 and saw the community flourish as people flocked to the Atlantic shore to dance, picnic, and enjoy the surf at the Princess Anne Hotel. Everyday vacationers mingled with notables such as Alexander Graham Bell and John, Lionel, and Ethel Barrymore at the landmark hotel with the railroad at its front door. Although little of the golden shore remains unchanged, modern residents continue to preserve what they can-especially their memories, pride, and love for the city.

Book Synopsis Medway by : Virginia Christian Beach

Book excerpt: Situated on the Back River, a tributary of South Carolina's historic Cooper River, Medway Plantation remains much as it was three centuries ago. Through photographs, interviews, letters, plantation records and diaries, this book offers a rare and intimate look at life on a private plantation. The one voice that permeates Medway's story more than any other is that of Gertrude Sanford Legendre. Her attachment to the land and animals and her passion for improving society have been the most powerful force behind Medway's preservation, culminating in her 1991 donation of permanent conservation easements on the plantation, a final act of stability in a century of precipitous change.
