This handsome book provides an important resource for artists and collectors. It is a fitting tribute to a major artist. The essays are good additions to the book. Though they are not particularly scholarly, they are informative. The illustrations are excellent.

Please note that you are advertising this book as having been authored by Kevin Sharpe; this is incorrect
It is authored by Valerie Fletcher, with a preface by Philip Rickey

This is a useful, well-produced addition to the literature on George Rickey.
George Rickey

I'm not sure why Kevin Sharp is listed as the author, since his name does not appear anywhere in the book.

Proper credits:

The forward was written by the book's general editor Lucinda Gedeon,
Ellen Feldman and Birgit Mieschanz are listed as editors, with Mieschanz
as compiler of the very informative chronology and the list of works
in public collections.

Valerie Fletcher wrote the graceful, 22 page essay that sets the tone for the book.

Phil Rickey, himself an accomplished sculptor, contributed 4-page reflection on his father's work.
