Following a similar format to the other books in this series, Art of the Southwest provides a particularly interesting collection of images. As with the other books a brief introduction is followed by the plates, each full page, and occasionally accompanied by a relevant literary quotation.

The artists represented include: Marsden Hartley, Sheldon Parsons, Walter Ufer, Ernest I Blumenschein, Edward Hopper, E Martin Hennings, Oscar E Berninghaus, Andrew Dasburg, Maynard Dixon, Georgia O'Keefe, Victor Higgins, John Marin, George Bellow, Thomas Hart Benson, William Midgette, Max Ernst, Philip Pearlstein and many others. All images are in colour, there are approaching 100 in total. Great value in a little package. ( )
