Eastman Johnston was the most celebrated American genre painter of his era, lionized during the 1860s and 1870s for his sensitive paintings of country life. Less well known is a series of paintings and drawings he made early in his career of the native Ojibwe at Lake Superior. Curiously, Johnson never chose to exhibit these pictures.

The Club

"THE SHAPE OF THINGS has always given me the most intense satisfaction," wrote Francis Lee Jaques (1887-1969). "Everything one sees and senses . . . Such beauty one wants to preserve---to make it available to others." Capturing on canvas the profound beauty he found in nature, "Lee" Jaques rose to the top ranks of American wildlife painters.

FEW CITIES have had such colorful yesterdays as Stillwater, Minnesota. Fewer still can boast a hometown photographer who so faithfully preserved them.

Pie in the Sky: A Memoir about Writing and Publishing

PIE IN THE SKY is a refreshing success story by the author of hundreds of magazine articles and a dozen books. Johnston discusses writing for magazines, writing and self-publishing books, and her work at the Afton Historical Society Press, where she is the founding publisher. "I am writing this book in the hope that it will inspire others to indulge in the joys of writing for publication," she begins. "Writing is an immensely satisfying activity and one that has given tremendous focus to my life. I am thankful beyond words to have creative work that often literally consumes me. My writing and publishing duties provide the kind of never-ending challenge that I enjoy waking up to each morning."
