But Bruce Irving, former producer of the popular PBS show \u003ci\u003eThis Old House\u003c\/i\u003e, will have none of that. In a collection of short essays, Irving taps into our collective consciousness by extolling the comforting sense of place we associate with such common and not-so-common New England sights as stone walls, village greens, lobster boats, classic ski runs, and garden cemeteries, to name but a few—symbols of enduring importance that are also still full of life and character.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCurl up in your favorite chair, relax, and take a tour of our common heritage—or take this insightful cultural guide with you as you travel New England’s highways and byways. It’s sure to shed new light on the old stalwart landscape features you see every day.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBruce Irving\u003c\/b\u003e produced \u003ci\u003eThis Old House\u003c\/i\u003e for public broadcasting for 17 years before venturing off into his own home-renovation consulting business.
