ideal for art or history teachers
Rating  (5)
Date: 2008-11-20
This is an ideal book to share with your class when discussing this chapter of history. There is a very wide range of reactions to the war, and an equally wide range of art styles and media. The short interviews with the artists, many of whom were combatants, are direct, not the usual elitist critical blather.
