Reviews

This unusual and involving work is recommended for art, arctic history, and alpine history collections. It is highly recommended for the many readers interested in historic expeditions and/or climate change, who will appreciate the eye-opening dialog between art from many periods. -- Shelly Sommer Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research


[ Vanishing Ice ] is a model of its kind as it traces artists' responses to icebound polar and mountain regions over two centuries. A perfect fit for art lovers with an interest in ecological issues. -Michael Upchurch, The Seattle Times , December 13, 2013
