ART AND THE RIVER:
VIEWS AND VISIONS OF THE HOUSATONIC

A series of four-color historic and contemporary paintings as well as black-and-white artistic renderings and photographs of the Housatonic River illustrate the book. The main text consists of essays by Housatonic River conservators and by contemporary and historic art specialists. Click the cover image to the right to see an enlarged view.
