Description

The barns of Illinois are more than just structures for storing equipment and livestock. They have become focal points of local communities, gathering places for friends and family, and enduring links to the past. Renowned photographer Larry Kanfer documents the diversity of barns throughout the Prairie State in this magnificent new collection. With over one hundred full-color photographs, he presents barns from every angle, inside and out, capturing their unique character and the reasons why they fascinate and reassure. Alaina Kanfer's engaging prose recounts the histories of many of the featured barns, revealing their distinctive imprint on the land and people's lives. From weathered, abandoned shelters in the countryside to proudly preserved landmarks, these iconic structures showcase the state's rich history and evolving way of life.
