Textbook

Like another reviewer I purchased this book for a college class. I found the book to be well laid out, generously illustrated and generally user friendly, especially for someone with a basic grounding in art history. Like most textbook and art history tomes it tends to be VERY dry, but for good information, an excellent set of notes and a well stocked bibliography, it was exceptionally useful.
