I really love the artwork in here, much of which I'd, of course, seen before, having grown up in the 70s and buying the paperbacks with these paintings gracing the covers.

But there's also a bigger selection I'd never seen before, and that's worth the price of admission all on its own.

If I've got any issues with this book it's with the somewhat workmanlike, dry text that accompanies the artwork, that far too often even references art that's...not in the book. They make mention of an artist show more painting, describing it, then I flip the pages looking for it, and it's not there.

But, overall, a very pretty book to look through. show less
