Published to coincide with an exhibition of the same title at the Nevada Museum of Art in 2016, this is the definitive, and lavishing produced study of the art of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding areas between California and Nevada. The area has lured artists to its shores for centuries and this large-scale, very heavy volume includes reproductions of the works of Albert Bierstadt, Marianne North, Thomas Moran, Ansel Adams, Imogen Cunningham and many others and features local arts and crafts and scenes. A stunning visual history of Lake Tahoe and its shores.
