In print since it was first published in 1979, this book is a glorious collection of American folk art by 'ordinary' women of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Filled with beautiful four-color reproductions of samplers, quilts, paintings, and needle-pictures along with excerpts from diaries and letters, sampler verse, books, and magazines of the period, Anonymous Was a Woman celebrates the daily experiences and inner lives of women who, in acts of love and duty, created many masterpieces of American folk art. This 1995 St. Martins Press Paperback is in
good condition. Not heavy but large so extra postage may be needed.
