Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Visser, John de (illustrator). 1st Edition. INSCRIBED by author. From the dust jacket: "This unique, beautifully-illustrated book is the result of a labour of love for Scott Symons, novelist, curator, art historian. Each piece of furniture is accorded the respect that can only come from intimate knowledge of its place in the fabric of our social history. Scott Symons sought out the great pieces, visiting museums, homes, collections, churches, farm houses. He studied them, sketched them, wrote about them with love, admiration and insight. Then one of Canada's greatest photographers, John de Visser, retraced Symons' steps and captured each piece, both in striking colour and in black and white. The talents of these two artists have combined to make this stunning volume an exciting, intimate excursion through the world of early Canadiana. Never before has there been a book like this one - it is a true original, in concept and in execution." No pagination. Inscribed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 000566
