Defiant Victorian, drawn to the deep forest and the open sky. Early recorder of Northwest Coast monumental art. Painter. Writer. Humorist. Emily Carr is all of these, and she is uniue in the Canadian cultural pantheon.
We know much about Emily Carr, but what of the social and political contexts that surrounded her, that defined her image and her posterity?
This groundbreaking book by three distinguished senior curators -- Charles C. Hill, Johanne Lamoureux, Ian M. Thom -- and seven equally distinguished Canadian essayists -- Jay Stewart & Peter Macnair, Shirley Bear & Susan Crean, Marcia Crosby, Andrew Hunter, and Gerta Moray -- sheds new light on Emily Carr and her world.

Shipping terms
SHIPPING UPDATES and INFORMATION. Please read!
For DOMESTIC SHIPPING: Recent USPS increases for media mail will make shipping larger, heavier books more expensive. We will contact you if additional shipping funds are necessary. However, it is almost certain that purchases of art books, photography books, and other large volumes and coffee table size books, will be impacted by these changes.
For INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: It is nearly impossible to provide an accurate shipping quote for international orders without checking rates first. I will check UPS and USPS and provide you with the best and most economical rate and then adjust the shipping cost when I process orders. Feel free to contact me first to check rates before ordering or other details.
