Sit down before you open this one

Dover Publications is the friend of anyone with nearly any sort of interest (and not much money). If you're interested in the ways and means of New Art, get this one.M. Verneuil clearly would have liked the Dover editors. LIke them, he had his wide-ranging interests, in his case in botany,...
