A Kind of History, with 184 duotone reproductions and an autobiographical text by the photographer, presents for the first time the complete work from Mark Goodman's twenty years of photographing the children and young adults of Millerton, New York- a project that defines a different kind of documentary, one that is non-linear, affectionate, and above all, about the love of making pictures.

     "Main Street was my makeshift studio, but it was also 'my Harvard and my Yale, too' as Herman Melville said of the sea. What I saw and heard amazed me, no matter how commonplace...I found everyday things mysterious, the little things that really end up making all the difference when you come to think about it."
--from the text
