Verner Reed began photographing New England for Life magazine in the early 1950s and later contributed to Fortune, Paris Match, Time and Vermont Life. The photographs in this collection capture his interest in all aspects of New England life: urban and rural, landscape and portraits. The commentary by Stomberg, a photo historian, is useful in calling attention to telling details that place the photos in a larger context. (Annotation ©2006 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
