"Chesapeake - the Eastern Shore is the third collaboration of award-winning photographer and designer Taylor Lewis and writer-editor Catherine Fallin." - from the rear jacket flap "An exciting look at the glorious gardens and fabulous homes of the Chesapeake Bay's Eastern Shore in more than 400 lavish color photographs and inviting text." - from the rear outer jacket cover "The alluring Eastern Shore of Maryland and Virginia has a long and colorful history dating back to the original land grants of the early 1600s. Its temperate climate and beautiful coastlines have long made it one of the world's most delightful places to live - and play. A haven for sailors, the Chesapeake Bay and its nineteen navigable rivers were home to the earliest ports and customs houses in the country. Fertile farmlands were planted in tobacco for the British market until after the Revolution, when the plantations became devoted to food crops and farm animals. The bay's oyster and clam beds and especially its crabs have long been famous around the word. Taylor Lewis and Catherine Fallin take you on a tour up the romantic rivers and down the tree-lined allees to houses and gardens hidden away on the Eastern Shore. Inside these houses is a rich diversity of style, from the most lavish plantation house to the most unusual contemporary home. You will amble through the gardens, down woodland walks, into lush rose gardens, along wild shorelines and marshes, through old fashioned restored gardens inside brick walls, into vast windflower meadows - and see everywhere the graceful curves and twists of the shore and its rivers: the Chester, Miles, and Wye; the Tred Avon, Wicomico, and Pocomoke. You will visit such historic places as Oxford, Chestertown, Easton, and Whitehaven in Maryland; Cheriton, Eastville, Accomac, and Onancock in Virginia. The houses ranged from seventeenth and eighteenth century brick structures in the north to frame with brick ends in the south; from historic townhouses and grand plantations that front on the rivers to contemporary retreats tucked into secluded covers. The Eastern Shore is a peninsula, separated from the rest of the United States by the two-hundred-mile Chesapeake Bay and attached at the top near Wilmington. It was not accessible from across the water except by ferry until 1952, when the first span of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge opened to join Annapolis and the Eastern Shore, and 1964, when the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel was built from Norfolk. This separation allowed the Eastern Shore to retain tis romantic isolation and rural economy for centuries, making it a unique part of America. Chesapeake - the Eastern Shore will give you a rich and intriguing insight into some of the most beautiful gardens and beguiling homes in the world." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
