A Short Guide to Writing About Art
This book was recommended by my professor for an Art History course. It is a wonderful book with excellent guidance and examples for any writing. As a science major I was unfamiliar with humanities/history particulars, when it comes to writing. This book was destined for a dusty spot on the book shelf once I finished the course. I happily discovered this is a good resource for all writing. I recommend it as a good addition to your resource library.

A Great Help
I originally purchased this book as a guide to writing for my critical essays in art history classes. I have found it to be so helpful. It includes the kind of information that you don't even think about until you actually need to utilize them..so grateful it was available to me. The explanations and provided examples are very clear. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve in their writing style.
