The Needlepoint of St. James: Fifty Years of "Greater Glory" (134 pages, $36.99) -- The resplendent needlepoint collection of St. James Episcopal Church in Keene, NH, was produced by a community of more than 60 volunteers in the decade between 1972 and 1982. Initially the dream of then Rector, Chandler H. McCarty, the project was accomplished under the guidance and energetic leadership of Mrs. Mary P. Olsen. This book tells the story of the collection, explores what it represents, and examines how it has contributed the life of the community, including as the church has changed and modernized. The book includes a complete photographic inventory of the more than 400 individual pieces and preserves the record of the hundreds of memorial dedications that made the project possible. While serving as a stand-alone inventory, it is also meant as a companion piece to Mrs. Olsen's 1980 book about the mechanics of planning, organizing and directing large needlepoint projects: For the Greater Glory (Seabury Press).
