Richmond, Virginia: The City on the James, 1903 - Available on Google Books.



Cover of  Richmond, Virginia: The City on the James: The Book of its Chamber of Commerce and Principal Business Interests, published in 1903, compiled by George Washington Engelhardt - has been available in Google Books for a number of years. It is a great resource for researching Richmond history from this time period - especially businesses and architecture.  LOTS of images of city businessmen, merchants, and buildings. Check it out HERE.
