Martha’s Vineyard Tile

Vineyard Stories has just published its sixteenth book about the Vineyard.

Last summer the press featured Schooner: Building a Wooden Boat on Martha’s Vineyard and The Bike Ride. Both books received great reviews and recognition. Schooner was named one of the 100 best photo books of 2010 by Snapshot magazine. The Bike Ride, a book for children, was endorsed by the Nature Conservancy for its contributions in the area of conservation.

And now this week Vineyard Stories unveils Martha’s Vineyard Tile: Hidden Gems in Island Homes written by Shelley Christiansen with photography done by Alison Shaw. The book was created in collaboration with Annie and Jeremy Bradshaw of MV Tile Company. It focuses on the unique tile installations created in Vineyard homes and features the work of nine local artisans.
