This book is a very special look at the life and work of a unique New England photographer whose technical interests and artistic eye captured plain facts and fine beauty in his photographic compositions. Some of his photography reveals an interest in current events that caused him to be the occassional photojournalist. His early work as an instructor of photography and art previews his fine skill in composing his plates. This is the first book of Coolidge''s photography ever produced. The collection of 200 photographs in this book portrays Woods Hole, Massachusetts, the islands of Martha''s Vineyard and Nantucket, as well as the surrounding coastal area of the Elizabeth Islands and villages along Buzzards Bay. It also includes historic scenes of Boston, the North Shore, mills along the Merrimack River, a coastal village in Maine, a rural town in New Hampshire and many maritime scenes. Each plate has been printed by the duotone process to give a near approximation of the sepia tones used by Coolidge in his original prints.--Book jacket.
