Booklist Review

Gr. 9^-up. Magnificent color reproductions and an engrossing narrative introduce the life and work of the great Mexican artist Diego Rivera. The layout and design make the book very accessible, and Kettenmann ably captures both the spirit and the controversy surrounding the eccentric artist.
