Since its first publication this book has been hailed as the

most up-to-date and wide-ranging history of art ever published in a

single volume. This quote from Andrew Graham Dixon describes the

book: 'Spanning continents and millennia, ranging from man's

earliest cave paintings to the works of Picasso and beyond, this is

a hugely ambitious book. But thanks to the breadth of their

scholarship, the depth of their enthusiasm and the enviable

freshness of their writing, Honor and Fleming triumphantly

accomplish the herculean task they have set themselves.

Sympathetically expanded by Michael Archer, who brings the story

forward into the twenty-first century, this thumping slab of tome

is without doubt the most compelling total history of art ever

written'. This Revised Seventh Edition expands the original

coverage by embracing new developments in archeology and art

historical research, and in particular contemporary art historian

Michael Archer has greatly expanded the authors discussion of the

art world over the past two decades, providing a new perspective on

the latest developments shaping our cultural history.

Its not clear whether Laurence King is going to bother sending

this out to the bookshops, or just blog the address of the

warehouse and wait for the country's design buffs to beat the door

down. Either way they will not be disappointed.
