The Temple and the Tomb

» Back to Gallery »

Compiled by Warshaw over eight years, the book's foundation is built around the houses that create Beaufort's street vistas and the people who built and lived in these "Architecture Treasures." Besides Warshaw's fifty featured house paintings and family histories, woven into this book are many other histories, from those who first touched the sand banks to the history of the Beaufort plaque - all with full-color Giclee-quality images.

" The leather look and feel of the cover, with its inlay of Front Street houses, is a beautiful introduction to Mary Warshaw's 11x 8 1/2 200-page artbook of Beaufort history. To keep the look and feel of a centuries-old seaport, Warshaw chose to eliminate the traditional dust jacket and silkscreen the title onto the spine.
