Cover, A Space for Faith: The Colonial Meetinghouses of New England

Early response to my new book, A Space for Faith: The Colonial Meetinghouses of New England, has been overwhelmingly positive. The announcement of the book was in my previous Newsletter #12. Retail locations and book signings are listed below.

This book is a collection of my classic black & white large-format photographs of New England's surviving "mint condition" Colonial meetinghouses -- an important part of our nation's history -- together with essays about them. The book will appeal both to readers of history as well as lovers of architecture and fine photography, natives and visitors alike. It would be a great addition to your library and a great gift for lovers of history, architecture, and fine photography, as well as New Englander "want-to-be's."

My photographs seek to convey my emotions about these places, and are in the permanent collections of the Boston Public Library and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, among others. A short multi-media introduction to the photographs can ve viewed here: Images.

This book can be ordered on-line at my distributor's secure web site: Order Here.
Information about Deluxe and Collector's Editions can be found here: Ordering Options.

Some nice early press, including reader comments, can be found here: Reviews and Kudos.

A small but growing list of independent bookstores is now carrying the book. Do you have a favorite bookstore in your area? Ask them to order it! Information about wholesale orders can be found here: For Retailers

  • Old South meetinghouse in Boston on July 2
