Spencer apple tree, The Big Apple, Wrentham, Massachusetts, from ‘Apples Of New England’ (Bar Lois Weeks photo)
I WILL BE READING from and signing copies of Apples of New England (Countryman Press, 2014) at a number of events during the fall of 2014 and winter 2015.
Apples of New England, a history of apple growing in the region, includes photographs by Bar Lois Weeks and descriptions of more than 200 apple varieties discovered, grown, or sold in New England.
