Roundtable approached agricultural authority and photographer Grant Heilman about creating a book that would record the vanishing farm in the American landscape. What we discovered is that the American farm is actually thriving, and so FARM--with more than 200 spectacular photographs--explores every aspect of the changing face of farm life in America.

  Nickelodeon sent a team of filmmakers and photographers all around the world to record children's thoughts about the future for their Nickellennium project--24 hours of TV programming aired on January 1, 2000. In May of 1999, they realized that a companion book might make a nice corporate holiday gift: THE FUTURE ACCORDING TO KIDS was born. We culled quotations from 6000 pages of transcripts to accompany the 200 extraordinary photographs we selected for inclusion in this elegantly designed tribute to kids, which was delivered in time for a holiday mailing.

  Using a similar approach to that used in the hugely successful Field Guide to American Antique Furniture, Roundtable conceived THE VISUAL DICTIONARY OF AMERICAN DOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE--a visual guide to identifying styles of American architecture--with historic preservationist Rachel Carley. Two eminent illustrators created detailed line drawings of every domestic style, from the tipi to the postmodern seaside house.
