Summary
The book is an encyclopedia of early artists from 1840-1940 who had a Texas influence. The book provides a strong reference section, bibliography section and is well foot-noted. If you collect Texas Art, this book is a must, especially for the price. One drawback is that except for the feature plates in the beginning of the book, all others are in black and white.
