About this title

Synopsis

Richard Moore specializes in rephotographing historic sites. This title features scenes from the iconic fishing village on Monhegan Island, Maine. The island became a destination for artists in the early 1900s. It remains an active fishing community and a haven for artists, birders, and eccentrics. The book commemorates the 2014 observance of Captain John Smith’s sojourn on Monhegan Island 400 years earlier. “Hilarious and profound at the same time,” writes Iris Miller, a Monhegan poet. “We are all ghosts.”

About the Author

Richard W. Moore studied studio art and art history while receiving a B.A. in English from Yale University, buttressed later by an M.Div. from Union Theological Seminary and an M.A. in non-fiction writing from the University of New Hampshire. I learned photography from many fine photographers, including Neil Maurer (later of San Antonio) and Paul Caponigro, then teaching in Danville, Connecticut.
