Review

"A lovely idea, this book matches Frost's poems with striking color views of the landscapes among which he lived. You can read 'Mending Wall' and on the facing page actually see the 'upper boulders' tumbling down." --Parade Magazine

4.0 out of 5 stars nice idea, September 25, 2001

By	Victoria Makol (Hanover, NH) - See all my reviews

This book elegantly pairs Frost's poems with corresponding photos. Often the poems accompany a two page photo spread. The photography is good, although the image quality on paper isn't fabulous. It's nice to read his poems and have images of New England bring them to life.

By	F. Shine (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you like Robert Frost's poems and beautiful photos of New England during the changing of the seasons, this book is for you. Some of the photos are so beautiful that they made me cry. And who does not like Robert Frost. This book would make an excellent gift or just to put on your coffee table and read at any time.
