About the Book

Imagine yourself driving through Virginia's rural landscapes, where fences stretch along winding country roads. As the seasons change, these fences transform the scenery: stone walls adorned with the soft colors of spring blossoms, vivid autumn leaves scattered at their base, or a peaceful layer of snow in winter. Sometimes, you'll spot a curving board fence silhouetted against a glowing orange sunset. These views offer endless visual pleasures around every turn. This book brings together photographs of a variety of Virginia fences-stone walls, board and rail, and wire barriers-captured throughout the year in diverse scenic settings. Each photograph is thoughtfully paired with a quotation or poem that enhances its visual mood. Though fences may appear ordinary, they hold a strong symbolic place in our culture. Ideas like "breaking down walls" or "don't fence me in" show how deeply these boundaries are woven into our language and thinking. In our way of life, fences play an important role. Numerous books have explored American fences and walls, from guides to histories and picture books, with a particular focus on New England's stone barriers. What makes this book unique is its focus on Virginia's rural beauty and its blend of images and poetry. Metes & Bounds offers a seasonal celebration that displays ordinary fences as works of art.

About the Author :
A largely self-taught photographer, I have been photographing for more than five decades. I have photographed on four continents and in nearly all U.S. states and in Canada. A longtime employee of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, I have traveled extensively throughout rural America and have photographed widely in rural areas. Many of my photographs have been published by the Department of Agriculture to illustrate its many reports and publications. My long writing career has covered a diverse array of subjects, including rural economic and community development, information systems, strategic planning, woodworking, photography, self-help, fiction, and children's literature. I have published well over 200 articles and books, as well as book reviews, reports, monographs, and presentations.
