Each depicts a notable landmark in the St. Louis area, most of which remain.  Additionally, each watercolor comes with a bit of the history of the depicted location; Ms. Bradley is also active in the local historical society, so she brings that bit of knowledge to bear.<\/p>\n<p>I paid full price for it in the local bookshop; if I&#8217;d planned better, I probably could have gotten an autographed copy from Bradley.  I&#8217;d originally thought I&#8217;d bought the book as a gift for my mother-in-law, but I&#8217;d only had the notion to do so, so I got it for me instead and will share it.<\/p>\n<p>Do I recommend it?  I guess, if you&#8217;re into looking at watercolors or want a little trip through some history vignettes.<\/p>\n<p><center><b>Books mentioned in this review:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?t=stlbrianj-20&#038;o=1&#038;p=8&#038;l=as1&#038;asins=1933370718&#038;fc1=000000&#038;IS2=1&#038;lt1=_blank&#038;m=amazon&#038;lc1=0000FF&#038;bc1=000000&#038;bg1=FFFFFF&#038;f=ifr\" style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" scrolling=\"no\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This book is a collection of watercolors by local artist Marilynne Bradley.
