Description
"In the 1700s, Williamsburg, Virginia, was one of the most important towns in America. However, by the early 1900s, most of its historic buildings had either been torn down or were crumbling. That's when a local church minister had an incredible idea--to rebuild the old town. He just needed help from townspeople, a team of historians, and one of the richest men in the world! Look inside to read the fascinating story of this iconic American town."--Back cover.
