A Journey into the Transcendentalists' New England (artPlace series)

This book and this series is one of the best intelligent series of expose's that I have ever seen. Critical photos and maps help you to navigate the areas these literay/artist's lived and worked as well as the level of verbage does not talk down to the reader, but elevates his knowledge of subject and makes it a stimulating experience as well. I can hardly wait to see the others. I hope they do one on the Pre-Raphaelites, and there are many other exciting subjects that this series could and should cover in their wonderful eclectic, intelligent format.

Terrific book

This book is fascinating and full of information, well presented. The photographs are beautiful and the entire layout of the book is unusual and charming. The ArtPlace series books are a special collection and the Felton books are really top-notch. Great gifts and get one for yourself.

Transport yourself to New England

Without even leaving your living room, Todd Felton's new book will make you feel like you have visited New England on a perfect crisp fall day. The lush colors of this travel book evoke the fall colors in Massachusetts. Starting with an understandable definition of what transcendentalism is, Felton segues in to an exploration of how Boston, Cambridge, Concord, Walden, Salem and Amherst influenced the Transcendentalists that lived, worked and created their art in these places. You feel it as you read it at home, but all the better if you can take this book with you on a visit.
