Gregory H. Nobles

Biography of the artist, focusing on the extent to which he was always hustling business to get the resources to make more pictures of birds. I wish there had been more about how he fit, or didn’t, into the art world of the time—although he saw himself as a man of science, I’d have liked more about contemporaneous art critics/theories.

I bought this to read about the First Great Awakening. If you want to read about how religious wackos can rend society apart then read this or other articles about this first "religious revival". The phrase "born again" may have arisen at this time also. It's all about how people can be conned into hating other people. Ref: 2016 campaign. It's called wedge issues nowadays.
