The first major book to tell the fascinating story of the main house and the grounds of Shelburne Farms in Shelburne, Vermont - both past and present. This is a perfect gift for anyone wanting a refreshing perspective on one of the most breathtaking nineteenth-century bucolic estates in New England. The property is a restored example of a Gilded Age "ornament farm," with architecture by Robert H. Robertson and landscaping by Frederick Law Olmsted.
