Christmas decorating, history, architecture, and interior design wrapped in one sparkling package!
A lavish celebration of holiday splendor and American history, this stunning volume

finery. From the grandeur of Colonial Williamsburg to the elegance of Filoli, readers are invited on an intimate tour of residences that shaped the nation’s political, military, and cultural legacy.
With a foreword by Christopher Radko, famed re-creator of vintage Christmas ornaments,
the journey spans an extraordinary range of homes. Discover San Antonio's breathtaking
Spanish Governor's Palace, the ranch-style Texas childhood home of two future US
