Sample Copy:

In 1886, Dr. Max Wiehle, a successful German-born physician from Philadelphia, purchased over three thousand acres at the astonishing price of $3 an acre. As a summer retreat for his family, Dr. Wiehle built a wooden home, and a Victorian gazebo down the hill from it by the Washington and Old Dominion Railroad.

It was the retired physician's dream to establish a planned community, and in 1888, he commissioned a city planner from Germany to draw up the town plan. By the turn of the century, several private homes had been built upon his land.
