SynopsisThe doors to America's most soulful homes are thrown wide open in Michael Henry Adams' dynamic new volume, Style and Grace: African Americans at Home. With unprecedented access to the private residences of today's leading African Americans, this deluxe book celebrates and explores the African-American tradition of flair and creativity in home design and decoration. The first book of its kind, it is a rare and intimate portrait of unique individuals living in beautiful surroundings. From the relaxed and comfortable style of Russell Simmons to the eclectic decor of photographer Gordon Parks to the refined elegance of U.S. Congressman Charles Rangel, Style and Grace: African Americans at Home illustrates a wide array of individual design and taste. With easily accessible text, renowned historian and scholar Michael Henry Adams places each individual home within a larger historical and cultural context. His delightful accounts of the residences are paired with more than one hundred fifty original photographs by Mick Hales. Book jacket.
