An Artist In America

Reviews

Review this book!

On Jan 4, 2012, runningman said
A classic and worth getting Benton's late-revised printing as he revised it several times as he aged. The description of the copy was understated as it was in virtually mint condition upon receipt. Wonderful volume for lovers of this artist.
