Henry the Stephenson House Mouse A Diary

In 1999, the restoration of the Colonel Benjamin Stephenson House in Edwardsville, Illinois, began. Henry the Stephenson House Mouse tells us about the whole process, from the purchase of the 1820 site to the finishing touches in 2006, when the historic house and grounds opened to the public. During the restoration, Henry got to know the contractors, painters, researchers, and volunteers who worked tirelessly to rebuild the house-and he provides all the inside details here! In this book, as in Henry's articles in the Edwardsville Intelligencer, readers will find the meaning of community spirit, as Henry reveals how the good people of Edwardsville gave their time, skills, and resources to an exciting project.Mateyka, Karen Campe is the author of 'Henry the Stephenson House Mouse A Diary', published 2007 under ISBN 9781933370071 and ISBN 1933370076.
