Excellent seller
Excellent seller, fast delivery, superb books at a great price!
Terrific service and top quality in every way!
Over time ‘books about art’ has without a doubt led me to find some of the greatest works of high quality literature their selection covering such a wide ranging subject offers. Recently I have made some great discoveries browsing their website and if I can find any fault at all, it is that the literature on offer is far too tempting, especially at such bargain prices! Add really speedy delivery and ‘books about art’ provides book lovers with the perfect service.
A must for lovers of the well written song!
This is a well researched, in depth, yet easy to read book that covers Warren Zevon’s 12 major album releases, while also detailing some of his more obscure recordings. In it author Peter Gallagher analyses ‘each album, every song’ as the book cover quotes, that Warren Zevon recorded up until and including his final studio album ‘The Wind’ released in 2003. It really does make the perfect companion to all of Warren’s recorded work and an essential read for anyone who appreciates the music of this late, great, singer songwriter. A must for the lover of well written songs!
Everything was as described and super quick delivery! Absolut 5-star service - would highly recommend!
L Krasner an artist in pollacks shadow.
I didnot know of Lee Krasner until I bought this book,I found it fascinating and an insight not only to krasner but also to the abstract artists in and around
Jackson Pollock.and there attitude to female artists.
In all an excellent book and a really good buy.
Didn't realise just how comprehensive this critical writings survey would be...
Didn't quite realise just how comprehensive this critical writings survey would be; that said, it not only made my day, it made my week and – given that it's 536 pages long – it will probably make my month, too!
Excellent, really happy with the book and customer service.
