5.0 out of 5 stars
Hart Island is a very special and sacred island.,
By Judy Colgan (jamc@erols.com) (Mclean, Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hart Island: Discovery of an Unknown Territory (Hardcover)
I want to be buried on Hart Island and cannot. So, I have to settle for the next best thing. The photography is outstanding and transports me right into each picture. The book is a fine historical tribute to all of the islands that surround Manhattan and have made it the city it is.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Haunting, beautiful and sublime.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hart Island: Discovery of an Unknown Territory (Hardcover)
If I was a better writer I would find better words than haunting, beautiful and sublime for this incredible book. If I could, I would PAY people to read it. (On the condition that they give me the money back if they agree that it's as good as I say it is!) It gives a lovely, painful and unforgetable look at how forgetable we can be. The shots of the bleachers from Ebbets Field! Broke my heart.I can't stop looking at these images. I can't stop trying to read the records of the people buried there that surround the photographs in the front. |
