Our Pennsylvania

Summary: Keepsake for the Keystone State
Review: Attractive, reasonably priced photo book on the Keystone State.
Irwin, whose photography has appeared in National Geographic, is particularly good in his coverage of the plain people of Lancaster County. Irwin doesn't neglect any part of the state, however. An excellent keepsake for anyone living in or visiting this state.

Review: Even if you're not a Pennsylvanian you'll enjoy leafing through this pictorial celebration of the Keystone State. Enriched with 150 color photos by ace photographer Jerry Irwin this landmark volume offers glimpses of every nook and cranny of a beautiful state.
There are breathtaking views of Pennsylvania Dutch country in autumn with towering trees lit by brilliant oranges and reds.

Picturesque covered bridges in Lehigh County merit attention as do the majestic Poconos and the Appalachian Mountains.
Mr. Irwin's unerring eye captures familiar scenes as well as little known treasures found in historic buildings and landmarks.
In addition, photos are accompanied by succinct captions which enhance the viewers experience. "Our Pennsylvania" is a volume to treasure and return to again and again.
