Trade Review
"….. a heroic force for good on America’s walls….an important, overdue volume….a triumph." -- Traditional Building
"[A] succinct overview of Blashfield’s work, illustrated by dozens of color photographs of murals from courthouses, capitols and colleges." -- Milwaukee Express
"Over 100 large color photographs many taken expressly for this publication and extensive new scholarship combine with an exhaustive list of known murals, a detailed chronology, and a bibliography to make this work valuable either as an introduction to the artist or for the reader already aware of this great American muralist." -- Style 1900
"An impressive work of impeccable scholarship and a strongly recommended addition to personal, academic, and library American Art History collections." -- Midwest Book Review
"[T]he richly illustrated study provides much in the way of new material on the artist and his milieu." -- Art History
