Every winter season, millions of households engage in the
tradition of decorating the Christmas tree. And how many
Americans have grown up with the delight of the annual
unpacking of the family's ornament collection, gathered
through the years; each one with its special story to tell?
Christmas Ornaments: ReCollections brings back that feeling
of childish wonder-a very special package to open year
after year, filled with richly detailed pictures of
exquisite glass ornaments, shiny and precious—and no one to
tell you "don't touch"! The book is also a tribute to one of America's favorite
pastimes: collecting. In this case, a collection built over
the course of many years, found in flea markets, garage
sales, antique shops, and on eBay. Ralph and David's
passion for collecting and eye for quality comes through on
every page; from the evocative photos and illustrations to
the stories interspersed throughout, of how ornaments came
to be such an important part of how we celebrate the
holidays.
