• Book Update and Ordering Information:

  

  Orders are now being accepted for May delivery!

  
  
  

  Production of my new book, A Space for Faith: The Colonial Meetinghouses of New England, is now complete, and books are on their way to the distributor. Expected availability is now the week of May 17th. I have received several advance copies and they are beautiful.

  This represents a delay from the original planned publication date, for which I apologize. Upon reviewing the unbound book I felt the quality of some of the images could be better. I insisted that several signatures (sections of the book) be reprinted, which was finally done to my satisfaction several weeks ago. The resulting book is beautiful, and is well worth the wait. One of my friends who knows my work well commented: "I'd hate to be your printer!"

  You will receive another announcement once the book is available. However, orders are now being accepted. To learn more (including a preview and ordering options):

• Historic New England Centennial Celebration:

   
  

  I have often admired and photographed the buildings managed by Historic New England, and as a way to "give back" to this fine organization and help celebrate its 100th anniversary, I have set up a new section of my web site. My photographs of Historic New England properties can be viewed here.
