"Sunlight and Shadow, The Page Ranch Story" by Lisa Michele Church - This book tells the story of how this 1858 homestead ranch was settled along the Old Spanish Trail. It is on a lonely dirt road but was once a thriving way station. The Victorian mansion built and elegantly furnished by the Page family is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Although the property is not currently used, we are always looking for ways to preserve it. Click here to read the book and see hundreds of photos documenting the mansion and its contents, along with the families who lived there. Special thanks to Washington County Historical Society for the free download.
