Filled with 141 beautiful images of the plantation, the book offers a history of Middleton Place from the colonial period into the 21st century. The book replaces a similar, but much shorter book published in the mid 1970's. The latest edition gives a more in depth look into the rise, fall and rise again of what is now a treasured National Historic Landmark.

Raised in New York City and Charleston, and after graduating from Andover and Yale, he studied at L'Institut d'Etudes Politiques in Paris and worked on Wall Street before moving permanently to Charleston over forty years ago. He is a Trustee of Classical American Homes Preservation Trust, a Trustee Emeritus of the National Trust for Historic Preservation and serves on the Steering Committee of the International African American Museum in Charleston. Duell was formerly a Chairman of the Charleston Board of Architectural Review (as was his wife, Sallie) and has served on numerous not-for-profit and corporate boards.
