Frederick Stuart Church: A Brush with Imagination is the first book devoted to this remarkable man and his art. Bringing together all of Church's activities; illustration, painting, etching, and writing, the authors present a comprehensive review of his creative expression that, combined with details of his life provides the basis for a new and fuller appreciation of the man and his art. The completely documented text supported by 256 illustrations (71 in full color) and more than 800 references is the result of 20 years of intensive research by the authors. Few stones remain unturned. This book is an important contribution to late nineteenth century American art and illustration and will be the definitive work on the artist for a long time.
