FREEDOM IN THE WILDS: AN ARTIST IN THE ADIRONDACKS (Third Edition)

Harold Weston
Syracuse University Press, 2008

"Rebecca Foster's new edition of Harold Weston's great autobiographical meditation on nature and art is much more than a new edition. It's the book Weston himself might have written, if he'd had time and the advantage of looking back on his life from the mountaintop. It's a unique addition to the literature of 20th century art... Foster has brought to Weston's book a context, artistic, philosophical, and biographical, that places it among the classics of American writing about the relationship between art, nature, and the deeply examined life." - Russell Banks
