Publisher Notes
This book tells the story of Bucks County's rich artistic tradition: from the 19th-century's best-known primitive painter, Edward Hicks, to the turn-of-the century birth of a major art colony along the Delaware River, to the influx of literacy and theatrical figures during the Depression. A colorful introduction by James A. Michener begins with the renowned author's boyhood in Doylestown, and recalls his delightful memories of the county's 'golden years.'
