Editorial : About the AuthorBrian Cook was the nephew of the late Harry Batsford, chairman of the family publishing firm from 1917 to 1952. He himself became chairman of the company in 1952. His design work, almost exclusively for Batsford, was pioneering and timeless.
Brian Cook's landscape illustrations from the 1930s, 40s and 50s—with their heightened use of color—have become iconic. This stunning collection, newly released in a special compact edition, gathers his very best work. It includes commentary by Cook on his working methods, the printing process that allowed him to create his characteristic bold hues, and the design principles of his craft. A stunning book for designers, collectors, and any lover of landscape art.
I was very pleased with the book. He gives it five stars. Then I ran into this book. The Unites States Physical Map on the back side is visually pretty, but is sparsely detailed. *ARC provided by Publisher
No Better Man is a well-written, thoroughly addictive, and deeply magnetic read. And, along with The Darker Side of Genius and The Ring of Myths, it is also the most responsible volume available that deals specifically with Wagner's most famous character flaw.
Also included, as an appendix, is the composer's infamous essay, "Judaism in Music". Quinn sees the birth of a paradigm, a world-order, but he sees few details, he offers very little prescience about what's going to have to arise. Their is too many limits on the abilities of the software to use fonts, printers, layout of the test.ect. This book is great! You can't just read this book, you must go through it slow and complete the work. Things could not look much darker for him. Some worked on some things. B
