Review # 1 was written on 2013-09-08 00:00:00 Alice Zhang One of the most enjoyable textbooks I have ever known.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-03-23 00:00:00 Fred Farid This was assigned reading for a docent training course I'm taking. It followed on reading another text on American Art by Robert Hughes. This was a MUCH better book, in my opinion - a more even-handed look at artists and art movements, greater inclusion of art by indigenous peoples and artists of color, women artists, etc. Pohl includes a helpful timeline of historical events of note as well as artistic developments at th beginning of each chapter. Long but well worth having as a reference in your art library.
