Stuart's Art Book Reviews
News
Three reviews with this update.  After my huge gap in updates I'm not about to add the phrase "this week" to that sentence though.  What can I say?  Life has been odd recently.

Like your art books?  Then why not drop by the art book ML and say hi. ^_^ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AACA_ML/

All Art Books Great and Small
The art book.  A wonderful way to collect some of the fantastic pictures which are created to accompany or promote a series.  But are you guaranteed to get exactly what you want?  Well with such a variety of formats and variable content the answer has to be no. 

How many people have picked up a book for a series they've enjoyed or a book which collects the work of an artist they like and then found that it had nothing they were interested in?  I know it's happened to me and I'm sure there's other people who've had a similar experience.  Ordering a book you've not seen directly therefore can be a risky business as the descriptions provided by many retailers are woefully inadequate.

In the following pages I hope I can rectify this slightly either by providing more information about a specific book or by giving the interested a better idea of what books are available with this collection of reviews. 

Here's Hoping To...
To impartially catalogue the contents of every art book that passes beneath my nose and then pass my own opinion on that book.

Most of the books listed here I either own or have borrowed from friends for the purpose of review.  A growing number of reviews however are being submitted by other people with collections of their own.  I am always to delighted to receive such contributions and would welcome anyone who wishes to add to this site.
