Unless you visit an Olmsted park, it’s difficult to know what it’s like being there. Plans and individual photos only tell you so much. World’s End: a panoramic tour of a Frederick Law Olmsted classic, a new book by Mark Roessler from Levellers Press, aims to solve that dilemma for the property the landscape architect designed on a pair of islands in Boston Bay.
Photographed over four years and during all seasons, the book combines original Olmsted firm drawings, correspondence, maps, and modern photography in a guide to this remarkable property. Coming June 2021.

In 2020, Marlboro College closed its doors forever. Last year’s graduating class will be the last from the campus at the end of South Road in Marlboro, Vermont.
With dozens of panoramic photographs taken at the college from 2019–2020 and many more images from the school’s archives, The Marlboro College Years acts as a record of its final year, a guide to key campus locations, and a scrapbook from its seven decades as a unique, beloved, and inspiring school.
