A vividly illustrated survey of the American vision that energized all aspects of 19th-century society., ·Includes works by pre-eminent artists, including Winslow Homer, Frederic Church, Albert Bierstadt and Thomas Cole·Features rarely seen prints, survey photographs, zoological and botanical illustrations, patent models, and engineering diagrams·Accompanies the exhibition The Great American Hall of Wonders at Smithsonian American Art Museum from 15th July 2011 to 8th January 2012The Great American Hall of Wonders is a vividly illustrated survey of the American ingenuity that energized all aspects of 19th-century society, from the painting of landscapes and scenes of everyday life, to the planning of scientific expeditions and the development of new mechanical devices.It focuses on six iconic objects that inspired the American imagination: the buffalo, the giant sequoia, and Niagara Falls (symbolizing vast natural bounty), and the gun, the railroad, and the clock (representing all things mechanical and the purposeful use of time). Each of these served as cultural lightning rods, sparking creativity across a wide swathe of American society. Visions of buffalo herds, railroad trestles, enormous trees, and Winchester rifles engaged not only artists, scientists, and inventors, but also poets, educators, farmers, chaplains, and members of Congress.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
