About this title

Synopsis

This is a revised and enlarged edition first published in 1975, with over 250 illustrations, nearly 200 of them reproduced in color. In the text and illustrations, the authors trace the origins and development of the hooked rug from its beginnings in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century yarn-sews bed rugs to twentieth-century examples of hooked rugs. The authors present essential facts for an informed understanding of why our best hooked and sewn rugs deserve to be valued as an important expression of American folk art.
