As new condition heavy oversized blue cloth boards with gold front cover lettering and decoration and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition color photographic dust jacket. Includes Foreword by Charles Kuralt; Introduction by Cathy Keating; Acknowledgments; For Further Information; and Web Sites and Permanent 1-800 Numbers. Profusely illustrated with 300 full color photographic plates. "In this book, for the first time, all of the official governors' mansions currently in use in the United States are given a lavish pictorial presentation. Each of these important state buildings has a separate full-color section devoted to it, picturing the house's public and private rooms, its exterior and grounds, and the artworks and furnishings within it. Each governor's mansion has its own story to tell. Some were built by the states expressly as a chief executive's residence. But many others were originally constructed by various figures prominent in state and national affairs, from politicians to captains of industry, and such homes led fascinating lives of their own before being designated as executive mansions. All of them have become important repositories for artworks, furnishings, and other artifacts related to each state's special heritage. Each home provides a unique glimpse into history. The mansions' stories are told in a lively and engaging text that mixes fascinating historical anecdotes with detailed architectural description and gives close attention to the houses' interior decoration, furniture, and memorabilia. This book will be of interest not only to history buffs but also to designers and home decorators. The governors' mansions project has been organized by Cathy Keating, First Lady of the State of Oklahoma, with the assistance of Mike Brake, chief writer for Oklahoma's Governor Frank Keating, and longtime fine-art enthusiast Patti Rosenfeld, all working in cooperation with the chief executive's office of each of the other states. A few months before his death, the late Charles Kuralt, the renowned television reporter and commentator, contributed a foreword to the book, adding his personal viewpoint and recounting a boyhood visit to his home state's mansion." - from the inner front jacket flap.
