Synopsis
In her "Visions" series of travelogues, author Caroline Crain has changed both her scope and her world-view. In this, "The Wealth of Sight," Caroline begins with descriptions of the adventures of a Northern Pennsylvania country-girl in London. From there we are introduced to the Seneca Indians of Western New York, then to Traditional travels in New England and a brief sojourn in old-fashion Charleston in the deep South. Here is present-day history in the unfolding-but in the author's usual style, the present is nuanced with a depth of history, of both the charming and the drama of the past. Look carefully; the photographs include comfortable ghosts and phantoms, all of whom appear pleased to have their tales told... ...Readers who have enjoyed previous books by this author will NOT be disappointed.
