The author began this project of visiting and photographing all the state capitols during family vacations. As the back end flap states: "Through many years of personal visits, research of archival data, and collaboration with state capitol officials and authorities, the author has produced a virtual walk through the history of the state capitols of the United States." Please see photos, especially the description, information and photos of a sample state capitol of Atlanta Georgia. 

As one Amazon review put it: "This book is the best, most detailed and well researched resource for studying state capitols I have seen. It not only informs about the buildings themselves but gives a rare historical explanation regarding the specific location and events that lead to the establishment of each state capitol city and its building. The photography is exceptional. We home educate our children and found this book was helpful as an additional resource for studying state histories of places we've lived. This would be fantastic to bring on family road trips, learning history first-hand. And it even has a section in the back where you can check off which capitols you've visited."
