Excerpt from Shadows, Vol. 20: The Creighton University Magazine; April, 1929
Modern literature is viewed with alarm by one part of the reading public and with tacit approbation by that part which believes a spade's a spade or a' that.
The alarmists decry the style or the lack of it in present day literature; they lament the new ideas and thoughts and the mode of expressing them. Those who approve see no great cause for worry, granting that there is a deal of muck written and read. These content that a certain amount has always been published and guzzled with avidity, citing as an example the broadsheet ballads of old.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a deep dive into the art of painting, as practiced in the 20th century and beyond. The author, an authority on art and art history, brings decades of personal experience into this survey of modern and post-modern trends in painting. The text begins with a historical survey of artistic movements, beginning with the Impressionists and continuing into the present. It delves into the work and influence of specific artists from Pablo Picasso to Georgia O'Keeffe. The study shows how the work of these artists forever changed how humanity sees the purpose of art and the potential of the medium. While the techniques and styles of these artists are widely varied, a common thread runs through their work: a commitment to pushing the boundaries of what art can be.
