Item Description

Bid high on this beautiful book from the RIT Press ''God's Country''. Explore the Genesee Valley with Phyllis Kitt through her photographs and brief histories of churches in this picturesque area of New York State. This collection of architectural structures is as diverse as the denominations in the region. Some selections include: the spectacular Neo-Gothic St. Michaels Catholic Church in Rochester, the Cobblestone Church in Childs (the oldest cobblestone church in North America), the Greek Revival Brooks Grove Methodist Church at the Genesee Country Village and Museum, and the Romanesque-influenced First Universalist Church in Rochester. The locations of 104 churches and chapels range from rural villages untouched by time, to larger bustling cities. Embark on a pleasant journey of discovery through Kitts history-laden text accompanied by full color images.

PHYLLIS KITT studied photography at St. John Fisher College in Rochester, New York. When she is not taking pictures, she is advocating for libraries and tutoring in literacy. But she is usually taking pictures.
