5.0 out of 5 stars This book spoke to my soul, to the self that I had forgotten, December 26, 1997

By A Customer

I read this portrait of Tasha Tudor by her daughter Bethany with hunger and joy! I shall add it to my list of favorite books that I reread yearly at Christmas as a gift to myself. This intimate portait of one of this century's most unique women adds to a storehouse of wisdom not often found in the modern world. I feel drawn by this book to my own quest for that which inspires me. Bethany Tudor has written a memoir which will serve as inspiration for generations of creative women. The pictures are also exquisite and draw one into the peace and serenity which are Tasha's gifts to us.

5.0 out of 5 stars Drawn From New England, August 4, 2000

By A Customer

What a WONDERFUL book! I've always enjoyed Tasha Tudor, and bring out her books when I need to "escape" and have a pick-me-up. I happened upon this beautiful history written by her daughter, and have since shared it with others....Tasha Tudor is truly a blessing to us all, and to have this insightful, introspective piece shared by her daughter is beyond words. I HIGHLY recommend it to all who are so enamored with what Tasha has done with her life, and for those, such as myself, who wish they knew her personally--this book gives you a wonderful glimpse into this special woman's life, as well as her special family! Enjoy!

By	Cindy (Michigan) - See all my reviews

I just received "Drawn from New England" in the mail today. I couldnt wait to sit down, brew a pot of tea and start to read the book--absolutely fabulous. This is a MUST HAVE if you are a fan of Tasha Tudor. The book transports you to Tasha Tudor Land--a great place to be in these stressful times. Thank you Bethany Tudor (& Tasha Tudor) for giving us all this precious gift!!! Cindy R
