"Extraordinary . . . will delight readers of all ages." -- History in Review. Publisher Description For his fifteenth birthday in 1805, young Noah Blakes parents gave him a little leatherbound diary in which he recorded the various activities on his fathers farm. This reprint of an actual early nineteenth-century book provides todays readers with a delightful rarity - a view of bygone days through the eyes of a young boy. Eric Sloane has taken the notebook with its brief comments and expanded the daily entries with explanatory narrative and 72 of his own remarkable drawings. Verbal and graphic sketches detail the construction of an entire backwoods farm as well as such common tasks as making nails, building a bridge, splitting shingles, spring plowing, and maple-sugaring. The result is "an extraordinary glimpse into everyday Early American rural life . . . [that] will delight readers of all ages." - History in Review. Author Biography The books of Eric Sloane celebrate the time-honored traditions of early America and remind us of the ties that forever bind us to them. A prolific artist, Sloane created nearly 15,000 paintings and drawings over his lifetime, many of which enhance his delightful books of bygone days.
