Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 987 + 570 pages. Text in English and French. "Here, for the first time, writing about Canadian art and architecture is systematically listed, cross-referenced, and indexed. But more than that, the work includes a guide to the literature in the form of an accurate summary of the contents of the entries. Scholars will thus be able to make a preliminary evaluation of the sources without first losing themselves in mountains of irrelevant material. That is what establishes this comprehensive listing as a work of scholarship that is far more than a bibliography. The work of the cultural historians can now begin." - from Foreword. Prior owner's stamp upon each front free endpaper otherwise clean, bright and unmarked with light wear. A high-quality copy of this excellent reference.
