Frank (art history, U. of Massachusetts, Lowell) has perfectly captured the genius and vision of Denman Ross, chronicling his life, travels, friendships, and lengthy career as she describes his theory of design. Ross's influence on modern design, both in art and architecture, is made evident in descriptions of the accomplishments and theories of his former students at Harvard. The volume is well illustrated in b&w with a series of color plates. (Annotation ©2011 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
