This lovely book provides the first comprehensive examination of Eastman Johnson’s vivid paintings of a quintessential New England theme-the making of maple sugar. He notes how Johnson conveys the tense, shifting relationship that existed between industrial innovation and New England’s distinctive brand of community spirit, evident through maple sugar’s close association with free labor, as opposed to cane sugar’s connection with slavery.
