Virginia Simply Beautiful II Photography by Charles Gurche First edition

In Virginia Simply Beautiful II, Gurche once again turns his sharp eye on the Old Dominion's lush landscapes. In 108 photographs taken over a fifteen-year period, he takes readers on a journey as varied, striking, and beautiful as the state itself. Gurche captures the state in all seasons, from the snow-covered boulders of the Hughes River in Shenandoah National Park to the colorful spring flowers at Oatlands mansion in Leesburg, from the fog-shrouded Manassas National Battlefield Park to the orange-, yellow-, and red-flamed trees along the New River.
