Reviews
“Generously illustrated and beautifully produced, it will be a welcome addition to many collections.” -- Roy Cronin * <i>Billie Magazine</i> * “Generations: The Sobey Family and Canadian Art is a gorgeous book, suitable for bookshelf display, exploring the prominent Nova Scotia grocer family’s commitment to its Canadian and Indigenous art collection. It catalogues and complements the exhibition that inspired it.” -- Jeffery D. Muzzerall * AtlanticBooks.ca * “A beautifully produced coffee-table style volume, each individual work of art is flawless reproduced and is accompanied by an instructive commentary providing an informative context for the painting and the artist. Of particular interest to art students, academia, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in Canadian Art History, Generations: The Sobey Family and Canadian Art is an especially recommended addition to personal, professional, community, college, and university library Art History collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists.” -- James A. Cox * <i>Midwest Book Review</i> *
