Under Live Oaks: The Last Great Houses of the Old South

Part of me loves this.. the other part thinks the houses are kind of junky and boring. And odd. But some of the houses that are shown I just love, and transports me back to a time when these houses were the norm, and decorating respresented the person and not just the trends... such an odd eclectic mix... kind of like me I suppose. :)

We are always on the lookout for old victorian houses. We really enjoyed the photos and descriptions and would love to be able to tour some of these homes! Imagine the history involved and the stories the walls could tell!

It came in good shape

Didn't read it through yet but what I have read is very interesting. It's a nice coffee table book .

Wonderful book with good info and pictures. This one was missing several pages in a few places which was very unfortunate though.

I own a 120 year old farmhouse in the South and I am fascinated w/ the history and culture. This book is a JOY! I LOVE reading about the families in the book, the photos are GORGOUS and I have been unable to put this book down! Of all the 'Home' books I've read this is by far my absolute favorite! ENJOY!!!

LOVED!

Gave as gift to friend who had ancestors there. He liked it alot.
