Synopsis:
First published in 1966, this account of the life and work of T. C. Steele, one of Indiana s most renowned artists, has become a much-sought-after classic.

The text, unchanged from the first edition, includes a brief biography by the painter s grandson, Theodore L. Steele; a poetic memoir of Steele s last Brown County years by Selma N. Steele; and an appreciation of Steele s work by art historian Wilbur D. Peat.
