In 1851, two aspiring landscape artists, Jervis McEntree and Joseph Tubby, set out for the Adirondacks on a sketching expedition that would test not only their mettle as artists but as outdoorsmen. Heading into the still-rugged wilderness, not yet fully explored and sparsely inhabited, the two artists ventured across about one hundred seventy miles of terrain, sketching what they saw for future painting reference.
In Sketching the Adirondacks, the artists' unique journey is brought to life by author Edward Pitts, who drew on McEntree's journal to reimagine the expedition as a series of letters home to friends and family. These fictionalized letters, all richly annotated with historical facts and context about the region, recount the pair's real adventures and the artistic inspirations that inspired their work as Hudson River School artists. Following their trip McEntree and Tubby were artists first, not natural outdoorsmen, and the letters describe the challenges they faced, as well as many of the famous guides and Adirondack characters who assisted them during the trip. Sketching the Adirondacks renders McEntree and Tubby's journey in vivid detail, and reveals how their artwork inspired so many others, blending a unique creative approach with rigorous historical accuracy.外文書商品之書封，為出版社提供之樣本。實際出貨商品，以出版社所提供之現有版本為主。部份書籍，因出版社供應狀況特殊，匯率將依實際狀況做調整。
