A propos de cet article

A very respectable copy (NOT ex-library) with clean contents, no inscriptions and no creasing to spine. The pictorial card covers have some light rubbing and traces of edge-wear but are overall highly presentable with no major flaws. Please see pictures. Note: Owing to 1.4kg weight an adjustment to postage charge may be requested for International orders.

A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

The authors explore the delicate tension between traditional and social change in Amish life, documenting the remarkable creative variation and individual expression Amish women achieve in their quilts despite the unique proscriptions of the particular communities. Rare photographs of the Amish by Susan Einstein capture glimpses of a culture that shuns the camera yet fascinates the outside world.
