Author Description

Edwin Way Teale and his wife Nellie headed south to Florida in 1947 to begin what proved to be the first of four long trips through the four American seasons. The end of that trail was not reached until 1962. The American Seasons is a one-volume rich harvest of chapters selected by Mr. Teale from his four original volumes of the seasons, with a fascinating Introduction by the author of the story behind his works. Additionally, there are sixty-four pages of superb photographs taken by Mr. Teale during his travels. This handsome volume was designed by Avery Fisher.
