Art At Lunch: The Material World of Early Philadelphia
February 1, 2012
Comment on Facebook
From its beginning as a haven for English Quakers in the colony William Penn founded in 1681, the city of Philadelphia prospered, becoming a leading port in the English Atlantic World and a center of American culture and politics. Richly illustrated with new photography and an array of early American art, George Boudreau’s new book walks its readers through the streets of this august city and the lives of its residents and visitors, exploring the stories of the diverse people - enslaved and free, women and men, rich and poor, patriot and Tory -- who made Philadelphia's unique history.
