The University Press of Kansas has a new website where it's easy to purchase copies of "Kansas Murals: A Traveler's Guide," the 2006 book I collaborated on with Lora Jost.
"As much a book on Kansas land and history as about its mural art,
this is a portrait of a place and its people. From beloved clichs to
unexpected innovations, Jost and Loewenstein's selections take us from a
wild-eyed John Brown to the ornate box turtle capital of the world, from
silos to post offices, covered wagons to rocket ships, graffiti to
architectural heaven. Read this even if Kansas is not on your
itinerary.”
—Lucy R. Lippard, author of Lure of the Local
“Makes me want to jump in the car right now and go look at those marvelous murals!”
—Marci Penner, author of The Kansas Guidebook for Explorers
“An essential book for every traveler in the Kansas art-scape.”
—Charles C. Eldredge, author of Tales from the Easel
