Customer Review:
This is a book full of real art for every man to enjoy, not a few canvases purchased by the rich who decided it was art because it matched their couch. This is art that expresses real everyday emotions and beliefs. I hadn't heard of Banksy before buying this for myself for Christmas, no I'm a... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 5. |  | The Ten-Cent Plague: The Great Comic-Book Scare and How It Changed America
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Price: $17.16
Customer Review:
The Ten-Cent Plague does an incredible job of framing the context of the early 1950s and helps us to understand how it was possible for comic books to be seen as a threat big enough to warrant book burnings and Congressional witch hunts. Well told story. | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $15.61
Customer Review:
I was required to read this book for a college art class, and hated it. I'm not a comic book fan, but I also don't detest them either. I found the book to be mildly interesting, but just way too reptitive. The author goes on and on about the same things for way too long, practically beating the... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

I got the Kindle edition of this book.
Font is very hard to read and there is a lot of mangled words.
Images in the book are unusable due the poor quality (too grainy).
