Grab the Brass Ring: The American Carousel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The beauty of the american carousel seems to radiate from the pages of this book. There are some fantastic photographs of carousel animals and machines that are still around, she also has photos of various carousels that have been lost or destroyed over the years. These photos are truly a window into time.The only criticism that I have of this book is that there is not enough background information on the carvers and their family history.
