From Library Journal:
Publishers of lavish coffee-table books favor the history of American art as a topic. This offering wins high marks for its 305 glorious illustrations, all in color, of "benchmark" paintings ranging from the 17th century to the present. The problem lies in the text, which consists of 34 mini-essays with such titles as "Portraits of the New Republic," "Dark Passages: Luminism Reversed," and "Pop and Media Art." The essays, employed as introductions to related groups of paintings, are aimed at novices, yet the writer casually throws out names of art movements and European artists without definition or suitable explanation. His comments appear off-handed and are not concise. An outstanding pictorial resource, the book offers little more.
