It is remarkable in many ways-for the photography, the writing, design and the luxurious finish of the book by Italian printers in Verona.
A Lifetime of Vermont People is a three pound, five ounce coffee table book-208 pages, 203 photographs, 60 profiles of rural Vermonters.
Peter Miller has created a summation of our present culture as he has experienced in the 63 years he has been taking photos and making notes in Vermont. He is also the author of Vermont People, Vermont Farm Women, Vermont Gathering Places and Hardly Anything Ever Happens in Colbyville, Vermont, which is a collection of essays. His books have won numerous awards.
Be sure to read the Foreword, and then the Afterword, which is Miller's rather unusual summation of what has happened to Vermont's culture since the Interstate was built.
The book is found at most Vermont book stores and some gift shops. It can also be viewed and purchased at the author's website www.silverprintpress.com
