Family Portraits in Verse and Other Illustrated Poems by Daniel Brown is a unique celebration of family history that combines treasured family photographs with poetic interpretations. Using his family's portraits as well as his wife's, it reaches beyond casual images to follow the path between generations and highlights the joy, humor, tragedy and resilience of seemingly ordinary life.
In an additional section Some Extra Illustrated Poems (for the heck of it)the idea of family is expanded to include the natural world and past figures both unknown and famous.
Within its pages is the theme of extended family crossing boundaries between ancestry and the world at large, all part of the unity of life.
