GERALD L. CARR, Ph. D., head of the Frederic Edwin Church Catalogue Raisonne Project, has contributed three illuminating essays that provide fascinating and essential historical background for understanding the works in the context of the development of nineteenth-century art and its nascent market.
"If you like Frederic Church or the Hudson River School of
painting, this exhibition is a must-see experience. If cannot
attend the exhibition, then reading the book and looking at the
color plates in it will be the next best thing. It is loaded with
color plates, 112 of them that are done in an achingly sharp,
high-quality manner. While the illustrations are praiseworthy, it
is the paintings themselves and Carr's essays that make the book
truly noteworthy."--Schenectady Gazette
