I don't know of a book, but I wrote a paper several years ago for Dr.  
Charles Brownell at VCU (Art History) on Charles Read, architect of  
Virginia Theological Seminary...And wanted to tie him in to Courtenay  
Welton (many of the Hampden Sydney buildings) and UVA and VMI  campus  
architecture.

Dr. Brownell would be a great source.

I will try to email you a copy of the Read paper if you like.
