Résumé:

"Light From the Hearth is an attempt to supply the parchment to record the lives of past and living pioneers from their written and oral statements. The photographs focus upon the buildings constructed by and lived in by these people. While many of these structures--now in a state of ruin or partial decay--are relics of a vanished past, some are still used today. From crude pole shelters, log houses and barns, to magnificent churches, these buildings bear testimony to the lives of their occupants"--Back cover.
