This book reflects more than a decade of meticulous research, and excerpts from Carr's own prolific writings have been skillfully woven into the narrative, combining with exquisite reproductions of over 200 paintings, charcoals and drawings, two thirds of them in colour, almost all of them specially photographed for this book." - from dust jacket.
