A beautifully designed and illustrated, and engagingly written chronicle of O'Keeffe's life and work.

This is another good overview of her life, but this one doesn't have the nice color plates that the last book did. It is fairly comprehensive in exploring who she was and has some nice pics, just not quite as good as the last book on her that I read.
