Description:
The text tells the story of Shelburne Farms, once a magnificent Gilded Age country estate conceived by America's leading aristocrats of the day, Eliza "Lila" Vanderbilt and William Seward Webb. Built between 1886 and 1905, the houses and barns, designed by architect Robert H. Robertson, include Shelburne House and the Breeding Barn, which was the largest open-span wooden structure in America.
