About the book

"'The Unknown Rockwell: A Portrait Of Two American Families' is the personal memoir of James 'Buddy' Edgerton, Norman Rockwell's neighbor in West Arlington, Vermont, for fourteen years. Buddy was a frequent Rockwell model, and was best friends with the Rockwell sons. It is the poignant story of two families tied by life and friendship in rural Vermont in the 1930s and 1940s, and the man who America regards as the pre-eminent 20th Century American artist. This book was written with the full support of the Norman Rockwell Family and the Norman Rockwell Family Agency, the only book written to date by a non-family member to accurately reflect the life that Norman Rockwell lived and captured in his art during the most prolific time of his career. Written by co-authors James 'Buddy' Edgerton and Nan O'Brien, 'The Unknown Rockwell' contains personal family photographs of both families, as well as Rockwell's modeling photos and his illustrations that resulted." -- Adapted from Amazon.com.
