This publication explores what the typical plantation looked like, what it produced, who lived and worked there, and how they interacted. Though George Mason is remembered as a statesman and political thinker, "Of Land & Labor" reveals his private life as a prominent planter, merchant, devoted husband and father, and master of his own plantation. Paperback - 32 pages (1994) Gunston Hall is the stately Georgian home of Virginia lawmaker George Mason in Fairfax County on the Potomac River. Mason inherited the land on which Gunston Hall is located from his father in 1735; construction on the house began in 1754. Completed in 1759, Gunston Hall was one of the finest homes in colonial America. While the house's exterior is typical of most Chesapeake plantation homes, the elegant interior reflects the full range of English rococo style, showing French, neoclassical, and chinoiserie influences, and stood out at a time when the prevailing building style was most often described as "neat and plain." The house's innovative architectural flourishes and intricate woodwork can be attributed to its English architect, William Buckland, and master carver, William Bernard Sears. Mason farmed part of the Gunston Hall grounds, growing tobacco and wheat, among other crops, and raising livestock. A slave community called Log Town stood at some distance from the house. Unknown Binding, Label: Board of Regents, Gunston Hall, Board of Regents, Gunston Hall, Product group: Book, Published: 1994, Studio: Board of Regents, Gunston Hall, Sales rank: 8738934.
