A Pictorial History of Arkansas's Old State House Celebrating 175 Years【電子書籍】[ Mary L. Kwas ]

＜p＞Arkansas's Old State House, arguably the most famous building in the state, was conceived during the territorial period and has served through statehood. ＜em＞A History of Arkansas's Old State House＜/em＞ traces the history of the architecture and purposes of the remarkable building. The history begins with Gov. John Pope's ideas for a symbolic state house for Arkansas and continues through the construction years and an expansion in 1885. After years of deterioration, the building was abandoned by the state government, and the Old State House then became a medical school and office building. Kwas traces the subsequent fight for the building's preservation on to its use today as a popular museum of Arkansas history and culture. Brief biographies of secretaries of state, preservationists, caretakers, and others are included, and the book is generously illustrated with early and seldom-seen photographs, drawings, and memorabilia.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
