The Birth of America
result of an enterprising three-year effort by John 1 ,ew is Stage-to photograph the early life of a new land and its triumphant struggle to become a nation.

Massachusetts beaches, w ashed by the Atlantic, appear as they did to Pilgrim eyes. The trace of Braddock's road winds westward through Pennsylvania wilderness. The cold iron snouts of cannon guard the battlements of Fort Ti. Spare and lovely churches proclaim the w elcome diversity of a dozen faiths.

The pastoral houses of Virginia, the cobbled streets of Philadelphia and Boston, and the worn wooden cabins of the frontier seem only momentarily emptied of their landed gentry, venturesome merchants, yeoman farmers, and pioneers.
Wisps of black-pow der smoke hover over Lexington Green, drums beat at Bunker Hill, a campfire flickers in the despairing icy night of Valley Forge.
Places and people of stirring times renew the memories of a nation's beginning, and offer a coherent vision of the sources of modern American life.
More than 300 photographs in color and black and white by John Lew is Stage.
