Review
9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. A great piece to add to any perspective libraryBy S JonesThe material comes from the 1950s but with perspective age is no consideration. For a short book he goes into some advanced perspective examples. Out of the library of books I have on perspective; I found some things in this book that were not adequately explained in others. I think it is a great addition and for the price it shouldnt be passed up.
