Excellent book on the history of 19th-century American art. Flexner is infectiously enthusiastic about the subject, and has put together a very readable, very informative work.Sadly, the book has been out of print since the late 80s (originally published in 1962) and the pictures (at least in my 1970 paperback copy) are in black and white. However, it is easy enough to get a cheap copy used and I'm sure a majority of the pictures are available online in color. It could also use a little updating...
