| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | The country seats of the United States of North America by William Russell Birch is an illustrated plate book produced in the early 19th century. It showcases engraved views of American country houses and notable landscapes, with brief accompanying texts, and advocates for refined rural taste and the cultivation of the fine arts in the young nation.<br/><br/>The volume opens with a short essay urging the development of national taste through country living and harmonious design, then presents twenty engravings with concise descriptions. It tours prominent estates and scenes along the Schuylkill near Philadelphia (Belmont, Landsdown, Sedgely, Woodlands, Fountain Green, Solitude, Echo, Mendenhall Ferry, and the artist’s own Springland), extends to Mount Vernon on the Potomac, Maryland seats such as Hampton and Montibello, New Jersey’s Hoboken and the sunrise prospect over York Island, Delaware River properties like Devon and China Retreat, and a West Indies–style residence near New Orleans. The notes emphasize siting and vistas over rivers and bays, botanical collections and greenhouses, architectural taste and authorship, and historical associations, all to show how elegant villas and thoughtful landscaping heighten the native drama of woods, lawns, rocks, and water to define the ideal American country residence.
