Step beyond Old Town Alexandria's historic brick facades and gas lamps to discover a world of timeless architectural beauty in Old Town Style. This comprehensive volume showcases over 40 extraordinary period homes, from a rustic Colonial Sea Captain's house to an elegant Federal townhome and a transformed 18th-century bank turned private residence. Many featured homes are published here for the first time, offering an intimate look into Alexandria's best-preserved historic treasures.

Blending personal renovation stories, decorating insights, and rich historical context, the book provides lasting design inspiration while emphasising architectural preservation. Acclaimed photographer Erik Kvalsvik's vibrant full-colour images reveal diverse interior styles-from Jacobean and early American to mid-century modern-and highlight intricate exterior details. Intimate glimpses of secret walled gardens add enchantment.

Written by Robert F. Weinhagen, Jr., president of the Historic Alexandria Foundation, and his Book Committee, Old Town Style celebrates one of America's most beautiful historic towns and the passionate stewards preserving its legacy.

AUTHOR: Robert F. Weinhagen is also author of Assume nothing: a manual for buyers of American and English antique furniture.
