Found this at a local Goodwill of all places! Gives a short overview of one of my favorite schools of painting and has a gorgeous collection of prints.

Wonderful illustrations and commentary from Louise, who is also a fine painter herself.

[Ray Savarda · Rating 4 out of 5]

Nice Large-format examples of some prototypical Hudson school paintings, plus some slight discussion of the major artists. Mostly a picture book.

[Ambrose Miles · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good short overview of the Hudson River School of painters from Thomas Cole to George Inness. The reproductions of paintings from New England to California are beautiful, fifty years worth.
