Overview
Adirondack Vernacular is the first book to explore Henry Beach and his photographic legacy. Illustrated with more than 250 examples of his work, this book covers the range of Beach's subject matter. Robert Bogdan's lively and accessible approach to the photographer's work encourages the reader to explore the North Country's people and places through Beach's photography and life.Synopsis
The photographer Henry Beach (1863-1945) took thousands of photos, many of which he made into postcards, of resorts, lumber communities, boating events, architecture, and visitors to the Adirondacks. Many of his photos and postcards appear here, in good quality b&w plates, where they accompany a narrative by Bogdan (sociology, Syracuse U.) about Beach's work and the world he captured Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
