Published in conjunction with the May 2002 exhibition at the Folk Art Museum in Williamsburg, this volume provides a guide to an outstanding collection of American coverlets. Anderson (lecturer, scholar, and author of books on textiles) discusses 700 weavers and gives details about their lives and professional careers. She also discusses 50-plus coverlets, each of which is illustrated in color; these works represent the transition from commercial handloom weaving (which took place between 1830 and 1855) to the mechanized factory production prevalent by the end of the Civil War. Oversize: 9.25x11.5<">. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
