Excellent overview of African art September 19, 2004

This book is well worth the cost! Like most titles published by the Smithsonian Institution Press, it is both pleasing to the eye and rich with background information on the various regions represented. For the African art collector, this book is invaluable due to the clarity of the photographs presented and the dating and description of each object. While it is not the finest book I have in my collection, I would highly recommend it to anyone who is seeking an additional work to expand and enhance their African art library as well as their knowledge of African artifacts.
