Book Review

Creating Colonial Williamsburg. By Anders Greenspan. (Washington: Smithsonian Institution Press, 2002. x, 212 pp. Cloth, $45.00, ISBN 1-58834-026-0. Paper, $17.95, ISBN 1-58834-001-5.)

In Creating Colonial Williamsburg, Anders Greenspan provides a well-written narrative of the establishment and development of arguably the nation's best-known history museum, Colonial Williamsburg. As the author notes in his introduction and reinforces throughout the text, the "life" of Colonial Williamsburg stands as an excellent example both of the social history of the United States in the twentieth century and of the birth and maturation of the history museum field in this country.
