Book Reviews of The Power of Art
Book Review: Why Can't Textbooks Be This Lively?
Summary: 5 Stars
It's difficult to decide what's more gorgeous, the full-color reproductions (wonderful, quality paper, by the way) or Simon Schama's prose. I did not see the tv series in its entirety so what's in the book is all new to me. He's a passionate intellectual and his enthusiam is a delight. I'm only at the Caravaggio essay now but already am thinking, How soon can I get back to Rome...?
