Wyeth People is the story of one writer’s search for the meaning of artistic creativity, approached from personal contact with the work of one of the world’s great artists, Andrew Wyeth.
Gene Logsdon (1931–2016) was the author of more than thirty books and countless magazine articles on agrarian issues including small-scale farming and sustainable living. He is the author of four Swallow Press/Ohio University Press books: All Flesh Is Grass: The Pleasures and Promises of Pasture Farming, The Man Who Created Paradise: A Fable, Wyeth People, and The Last of the Husbandmen: A Novel of Farming Life.
"Logsdon's 1969 title gets a facelift. In addition to the original text, in which the author tackles not only Andrew Wyeth's creative impulse but that of all artists and writers, this edition sports a new foreword by Logsdon, updating the story, and larger photos. Public and academic collections alike will want this gem." - Library Journal "I believe artistic creativity exists in the same way a thought exists, or love, which is to say that it arises in that mysterious realm of the human animal where body and spirit intersect." - Gene Logsdon
