Old Virginia Houses Along the James features descriptions and black-and-white photographs of historic buildings in Richmond, Henrico County, Chesterfield County, Charles City County, Price George County, James City County, Surry County, Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, York County, and Kent County (all in Virginia). It focuses more on the homes built in the 1600's, 1700's, and 1800's; churches, government buildings, places of business, a hotel, and a tavern are also included in the book.
