America's Art Museums: A Traveler's Guide to Great Collections Large and Small

International and domestic tourists will appreciate Suzanne Loebl's America's Art Museums: A Traveler's Guide to Great Collections Large and Small. Organized by state, the book covers everything from Arizona's Fleischer Museum, specializing in the California School of American Impressionism, and Harvard's Arthur M. Sackler Museum, featuring Asian art, to the Studio Museum in Harlem, with important African-American, African and Caribbean work, and the Toledo Museum of Art, with an impressive glass collection from the ages. New York's, Chicago's and the universities' heavyweights of course receive their due. Each entry includes all necessary practical information, including activities for children and, in several friendly but pithy paragraphs, Loebl offers her impressions of the collections, services and facilities. Many entries include a photograph of a museum or artwork. (Jan.)
