Emily Carr: At the Edge of the World

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Maxwell Newhouse. This biography of marginalized early twentieth-century Canadian artist Emily Carr reveals as much about the history of women artists' struggle for respectability as it does about Carr's own life story. Pen-and-ink sketches depicting scenes from Carr's life face full-color reproductions of Carr's own paintings, largely of Pacific landscapes and native themes. Timeline. Bib.
Reviewer: Norah Piehl
