There has never been a book like this intertwining the arts and artifacts of both the traditional and the evolving worlds. Folk art and quilts are here, but so is the work of Precisionist painter Charles Demuth and Abstract Expressionist painter Franz Kline. Objects range from needlework, pottery, furniture, and glass to paper, paintings, and metals--including gold and silver! The extensive historical text is illustrated with over 350 color photographs to showcase works of great beauty.

"To the Latest Posterity is filled with examples of family registers from museum and private collections, many of them never before published, including early handmade work as well as printed registers that were filled in by hand in the nineteenth century. Bringing the art into the twentieth century and beyond, the Earnests discuss the adoption of the art by the Amish, who continue the practice of illuminated family record keeping today."--Jacket.

The early Pa. Dutch settlers introduced to America a native craftsmanship strongly influenced by their ancestral fatherland. It developed a flavor of its own which has contributed so richly to the historical folk art of the New World. Brings together a representative collection of illustrative material (over 270 photos) as an excellent record of the Pa. Dutch folk art. (144pp. illus. Masthof Press, 1993 reprint of 1946 ed.)
