This splendid book explores the dynamic tradition of Art Deco in America and, in over 500 illustrations, reveals the beauty and extent of the style as it was manifested here

The intense relationship between the American people and their surroundings has been the source of a rich artistic tradition. American Visions is a consistently revealing demonstration of the many ways in which artists have expressed this pervasive connection. In nine eloquent chapters, which span the whole range of events, movements, and personalities of more than three centuries, Robert Hughes shows us the myriad associations between the unique society that is America and the art it has produced

Edited and with an introduction by Sam Watters, American Gardens has more than 250 archival photographs and plans and an invaluable biography section profiling the schooling and projects of the landscape designers whose work is featured in the book. In a large landscape format, American Gardens captures estate gardens as they existed for one generation, a time when people had the land, the time, and the skill to fulfill the grandest gardening fantasies

A timeless classic, this workbook-style text celebrates holidays—and the ESL learner! Each of the 20 chapters targets a holiday via an informative three-page reading. Key vocabulary is bolded and recycled. For example, the Valentine’s Day unit embraces the words romance, affection, sweetheart, companion, feelings and others that are then reviewed in matching exercises, sentence completions, and Internet tasks. Black and white photos further add to the celebration. Special appendices extend learning with relevant holiday “documents” (The Pledge of Allegiance, MLK’s I Have a Dream speech, etc.), gift-giving customs, and traditional songs. An answer key is in the back. Holidays included aside from the most common: President’s Day, St. Patrick’s, Easter, Memorial Day, The 4th of July, Election Day, Veterans Day, Cinco de Mayo, Kwanzaa, Ramadan, and Yom Kippur
