Alexandriana is a historical fiction novel written by LeGette Blythe. The book tells the story of the city of Alexandria, Virginia, from its founding in 1749 to the present day. The novel is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different period in the city's history. Part one focuses on the early years of Alexandria, when it was a bustling port city and center of the slave trade. Part two covers the Civil War and the city's role in the conflict, including the occupation of Alexandria by Union forces. Part three brings the story up to the present day and explores the city's modern history and development. Throughout the book, Blythe weaves together historical facts and fictional characters to create a vivid portrait of Alexandria and its people.
