Unmarked and still stiff to open in card covers with just a hint of shelflife.; 6.77 X 1 X 9.48 inches; 436 pages; Clifton Royal is a documentary history of a small farming community on the Kennebecasis River in Kings County New Brunswick. It is built from the Wetmore family’s own records rather than a narrative history. The core is diaries from 1870 to 1891: David Pickett Wetmore’s diary for 1870–1880 short diaries by Rebecca Araminta Wetmore May 1873 and May 1874 Howard Douglas Wetmore’s farm journal for 1884–1891 and Genevieve Wetmore’s diary for 1889. With those are the Wetmore & Puddington day book shop records from 1864 with client lists and the Union Agricultural Society minute and account book for 1882–1907. The entries cover fruit-farm work and plantings the general store community and church meetings militia and volunteer service and ordinary household life. Baxter’s introduction and a closing section on Clifton church and community frame the documents. Period photographs illustrate the volume. The result is a close picture of one family’s farms and store and of village institutions in Victorian New Brunswick in the early decades after Confederation. . 2005. 0660193426 .

"This painting Les Demoiselles d'Avignon was painted in 1907 and is the most famous example of cubism painting. In this painting Picasso abandoned all known form and representation of traditional art. He used distortion of female's body and geometric forms in an innovative way which challenge the expectation that paintings will offer idealized representations of female beauty. It also shows the influence of African art on Picasso."-website description. The Museum of Modern Art paperback
