Parke County

"Photographer Marsha Williamson Mohr encourages us to take our foot off the gas pedal through tree-tunneled country lanes and notice rural Indiana's changing seasons. Her arrested waterfalls and wide horizontal shots, like views from a car windshield, fulfill nostalgic longing for a slower, quieter time when rattling cicadas were the dominant sound. Parke County native Mike Lunsford's history of the region and folklorist Jon Kay's descriptions of local artisans bring humanity to Mohr's blissfully un-crowded landscapes."—Rachel Berenson Perry, author of William J. Forsyth: The Life and Work of an Indiana Artist

"Marsha Williamson Mohr's wonderful Parke County beckons one to get acquainted with a quieter time. When you pick it up, you'll probably find yourself settling back in a comfortable chair to soak up each page which softly implores 'relax and ponder awhile.' Picturesque roads, barns and wooden covered bridges are interspersed with the natural beauty of this jewel of rural Indiana. See what peacefulness is!"—Gary Moore, author of Brown County Mornings
