Princess Anne County and Virginia Beach: A Pictorial History

With over 330 photographs maps and sketches this volume offers a glimpse into the activities of generations of Princess Anne farmers church-goers and school children as well as the early days of the Virginia Beach resort community. Illustrations of military activities beginning with the American Revolution reflect Princess Annes location on the Atlantic coast at the mouth of the Chesapeake bay. The book provides both a record of the many architectural treasures which the city can claim from its past and sampling of how its residents have interacted with events and their distinctive environment over a span of four centuries.
