Indiana Barns Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Indiana is barn country. Beautiful, aged barns can be found tucked among bucolic fields from Valparaiso to Vincennes. Once a dominant feature of the Hoosier landscape, these evocative buildings are fast disappearing, giving way to more efficient, but less visually appealing, metal structures. Indiana Barns presents 138 of these charming rustics, drawn from the portfolio of photographer Marsha Williamson Mohr. Mohr has been photographing barns, covered bridges, and pastoral scenes for more than 20 years. Here, she showcases barns of all shapes and sizes, captured from every angle, during all four seasons, and in various states of repair and decay. Whether you have owned a barn or just admire the craftsmanship, this lively collection is sure to delight.

I purchased this for my dad's birthday last year and he really enjoyed it. We live in Indiana and he has always enjoyed barns, which is something I never understood as a child. This book is very well done and the photos are beautiful. I wish there was more history on each of the barns, but that's a minor issue.
The photographs of the barns are excellent. The descriptions, however, just say what county the barn is in and its archetectural style. It would have been a far superior book if a two or three sentence story for each barn was given. It doesn't even give the approximate years the barns were built.
Beautiful pictures. A hoosier native gone for 30 years and just returned...always loved Indiana barns. Would have enjoyed a little more info on the barns. Enjoyed the introduction.
...You will truly enjoy every beautiful, colored photo and narrative! The author, Ms. William son's genuine appreciation for historical barns is apparent.
Some of the pictures have been reversed, I suppose for artistic style. But not a true representation of some beautiful Indiana barns.
