Seller's Description:
Fine. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. First published in 1985, this book is the second edition revised and expanded from 1994, 209 pages, illustrated in color and some b&w (with more than 250 illustrations). "This book uncovers the influences and motivations behind these useful, beatiful works of art. It pieces together how and why such quilts were made and highlights the cultural influences that affected the maker's choices of fabrics, motifs and style. Although the book's careful scholarship is impressive, its portrayal of the emotional landscape of the nineteenth century is equally important." FINE SOFTCOVER.
