Vignettes: Bertha C. Coors & Harold S. “Jack” Munroe
​​​

Robert Strong Woodward: Artist Against All Odds
Robin Brooks created and produced the book design for this memoir of a young woman’s travels, compiled by her granddaughter. The journey of Vignettes: Bertha C. Coors & Harold S. “Jack” Munroe is told completely through letters. 

The author chose to portray on the cover the trunk her grandmother had taken with her on her 
journey. 

This was such a treat to design. Robin loved seeing the individual images that began each chapter, with the period costumes and images from another time. How lovely it was to experience that time coming forward for the reader, all brought to life by the exchanges in letters of this courageous young woman, seeing the world for the first time! (6 x 8")
