Description
 
Christmas in Williamsburg is an album of all the merry moods of Christmas in this beloved 18th century town. Here our forefathers drank toasts from the wassail bowl, pulled up their chairs to the groaning board of yuletide feasts, sang their carols, and worshiped the Holy Child at Bruton Parish Church as visitors do today.

Doors and windows, tables and even banisters are garlanded with pine and decorated with the fruits, cones, and greens that colonial homemakers could have used.

Taylor Lewis reveals again his sure photographic touch with the intimate detail as well as the sweeping view. One can almost smell the aroma of roast wild turkey or cherry tarts, hear the costumed carolers as they sing their way from door to door, feel the crunch of snow under foot along Duke of Gloucester Street.

Joanne Young's text captures the mood of Christmas when Williamsburg was young, as well as the excitement that sparkle in the air today from the moment when the Grand Illumination of the town opens the season until Twelfth Night marks its close.

This is a heart warming distillation of a holiday whose joy is timeless, in a town that turned time back.
