From the Bookshelf


 Here are four delightful little books.  If you love travel and if you love watercolour sketches these are definitely for you.



 Diane Hollingsworth Gessler takes us across the country and back again with Very New Orleans,  Very California, Very Charleston and Very Washington DC.  Each one is a diminutive gem filled with evocative sketches and descriptions of everywhere you'd want to see.



From major tourist attractions, to those little out of the way, special sights that only those in the know can tell you about.



 If you're planning a trip, these make great pre-travel guides, if you're an armchair traveler these are perfect as well.  Delve into just one and you'll be hooked!

  2. Lisa - That's librarians for you - always full of something else to read! You could probably add several "not-to-be missed" spots in the D.C. book!
