Northern Virginia�s cemeteries are time capsules reflecting the region�s 350 years of history. They offer a glimpse into the lives and fortunes of the famous; the infamous; and those who are remembered for loving their families; tending to their business; and quietly supporting their communities. There are some 1;000 cemeteries in Northern Virginia; ranging from small family plots to huge national cemeteries covering hundreds of acres. This book presents the history of the region through the medium of cemeteries. Every gravestone has a story to tell. Confederate raiders; freedmen; eccentrics; and nation builders lived and died in Northern Virginia. Sometimes; tombstones are all that remain of their stories. Often; finding their tombstones is the first step in rediscovering the stories of these figures.

DerhamThis book is invaluable for piano teachers as well as intermediate to advanced pianists. Dr. Price takes the guess work out of interpretation with her thoughtful approach. I like the many excerpts from early to intermediate pieces. which are well-known standards of teaching. I especially like Chapter 3. titled Surprises. and the clever way Dr. Price shows us how to find some of the surprises that are hidden in the score.
