Roy Sewall’s coffee-table book is here!
Our Potomac, from Great Falls through Washington, D.C.

After three years in the making, this large (11.5” x 11.5” x 1”) color photo book is now available.

Our Potomac makes a gentle but compelling case for the perpetual respect and protection that our river deserves. What makes the book unique is its concentration on just 17 miles of the river – the stretch most accessible to people in the Washington metropolitan area. The photographs follow the Potomac downriver to show its remarkable transformation from raging falls surrounded by lush forests to an idyllic setting for many of Washington’s great attractions. Our Potomac was inspired by Roy’s affection for hiking and bicycling along the river and the adjacent Chesapeake & Ohio Canal.

There are 216 photos, of which Roy took 190, plus Roy wrote all the text and captions. Tom Field, Roy’s photography collaborator, contributed 26 photos. Matthew Logan, President of the Potomac Conservancy, wrote the compelling Foreword. A portion of the profits will be donated to the Potomac Conservancy, an organization that Roy has come to really admire. Our Potomac is published by Image Publishing, Ltd., of Baltimore, Maryland.

List price is $42.50. For a limited time, if you buy directly from Roy he will autograph the book and offer a 20% discount, so the price is $34 plus $1.70 sales tax (Maryland residents only), plus $5 for shipping and handling. Contact to purchase.

Books are now available in major bookstores in the Washington, D.C., area.
