{"product_id":"great-houses-of-the-south-9780847833092","title":"Great Houses of the South","description":"An exquisitely photographed collection of the great houses and mansions of the South. \u003cbr\u003eIn the tradition of Rizzoli's \u003ci\u003eHistoric Houses of the Hudson Valley\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGreat Houses of New England\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGreat Houses of the South\u003c\/i\u003e features a stunning array of newly photographed homes that range over three centuries and are distinctive examples of the architecture of the region. While in popular imagination the \"Southern Style\" is embodied in the classic Southern plantation house with its Greek Revival detailing--its stately white columns, wide porch, and symmetrical shape--the houses themselves are much more various and engaging, as shown in this important volume. From stately Stanton Hall of Natchez, Mississippi, one of the most magnificent and palatial residences of antebellum America; to Longue Vue House and Gardens of New Orleans, the luxurious Classical Revival-style home of Edgar and Edith Stern; to the fabled Biltmore of Asheville, North Carolina, the opulent French Renaissance-inspired chateau and Gilded Age estate of George Washington Vanderbilt, this lavish volume is comprehensive in scope and a landmark work of enduring interest to homeowners, architects, architecture historians, and all those who love fine architecture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rizzoli International Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780847833092\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.12h x 9.72w x 1.17d","brand":"Laurie Ossman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924948226229,"sku":"9780847833092","price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_af02f12b-8809-429b-9414-01b09fae6c7e.jpg?v=1687842029","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/great-houses-of-the-south-9780847833092","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
