The spectacular and dramatic effects of changing seasons have been a source of inspiration for artists through the ages. Pennsylvania Seasons is a delightful collection of nature-themed poems paired with magisterial landscape photography that captures all the mercurial moods of summer, autumn, winter, and spring. Overflowing with visual and lyric imagery, this book celebrates natural wonders, some preserved in public parks and forests and others lurking in hidden places.
Featuring the work of local poets who know the region best, Pennsylvania Seasons matches each photograph with a verse that effectively evokes its power. The result is an inspired ode to nature which will be an essential gift for all Pennsylvanians.
