Our knowledge of Arkansas history recently received a huge boost with the publication of a massive two-volume study titled Arkansas Made. The subtitle explains that the books comprise a survey of the decorative, mechanical and fine arts produced in Arkansas through 1950.
These books, published by the University of Arkansas Press, demonstrate that Arkansas, from the earliest years, is far more complex than the stereotypes allow. Arkansas Made is the second edition of two volumes by the same title published in 1990-91. While the original edition contained 447 pages, the new edition has 1,344 pages and more than 1,300 images. Elegantly printed and hardbound, together they weigh nearly 13 pounds.
