How good is the book:
Images of America - Singer
Castle?
Received from the V.P. of Operations & Marketing
for
Singer
Castle on Dark Island
is this unsolicited statement:
"All I can say is WOW! Very nicely done. I cannot
imagine a better comprehensive coverage of the Castle that we all love.
... Thanks again for the fine job you did..."
---D. Lack, V.P.
If you have not been to
Singer
Castle, please go there for a great experience!
(Located in northern New York on the St. Lawrence River)
"I have to say I think you did a really
outstanding job of your book. The background information you turned up
on Bourne, his business success and lifestyle as well as the wide
variety of interesting historical and contemporary images, make this a
thoroughly fascinating read. I also enjoy the way you share the
information through captions rather than a text heavy 'tome'. Well
done! Very well done."
---Ian
Coristine
(The acclaimed Mr. Coristine is currently the premier photographer
of the scenic Thousand Islands)
"I'm blown away with your book!! It is great!!
...
I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire book, you
have some fabulous pictures and history there..."
---Marilyn Hutchinson, of Corbin's River Heritage fame, Clayton
NY.
(The late Les
Corbin was called "The Dean" of
Thousand Islands photography during the
B&W era)
"For readers with a more localized interest in
history
... Images of America books are an invaluable resource."
