Cover of "Goodly Heritage" written by Beverly McGlamry, Ballantine Books
Book Synopsis:
BARKER-MARKEY: A NAME THAT ECHOED DOWN THE BUSTLING COAST OF THE COLONIES...
for their ships had no equal for grace and innovation. Little did rivals suspect the shocking secret--that these peerless vessels were designed by a woman!
Yet Eliza Barker-Markey 's sure hand was to sketch plans for the ship that would alter the course of merchant seafaring--and bring acclaim to the long-struggling family shipyard. With her husband, Jonathan, Eliza scaled the pinnacles of fortune--until the rude winds of tragedy suddenly dashed their dream. And their son, Geoffrey Markey--still so young and vulnerable--was left all alone to rescue their vision... and his heritage.
Here is the story of three generations whose courage conquered a thunderous century, when a brazen colonial rebellion stunned the world and a proud little country struggled into being. Here is the saga of a family, poised on the riotous brink of history--facing enmity, ruin, war, and death--yet carving their place through the fateful decades with a spirit of faith and triumph.

"A Day on the Beach"
By Martha Walter
Located in Lambertville, NJ
Jim's of Lambertville Fine Art Gallery is proud to present this piece by Martha Walter (1875-1976).
Born in Philadelphia in 1875, Martha Walter attended Girls’ High School followed by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. It was at the Academy that Walter’s artistic talent was discovered. An admiring instructor by the name of William Merritt Chase took young Martha under his wing, giving her both inspiration and direction. She additionally enrolled with Chase at his summer school in Shinnecock, Long Island and in 1903, was awarded the Cresson Traveling Scholarship by the Pennsylvania Academy. This sent Martha Walter on travels to France, Italy, Spain, and Holland, where she attended the Grand Chaumiere and the Academie Julian in Paris. Afterwards, she established a studio on the Rue De Bagneaux in France with several other American women artists. In 1909, Walter won the Mary Smith Prize from the Academy for a portrait she had painted while in Europe. At the onset of World War I, Martha returned home and began painting plein-air subjects, such as Ellis Island, the fishing village of Gloucester, scenes of cheerful children, and the quintessential American beach scenes which have brought her national acclaim.
Throughout her life, Walter continued to travel with great regularity capturing in oil and watercolor a wealth of landscapes and cultures across the globe. Martha lived a charmed life...
