Wildlife and Western Heroes: Alexander Phimister Proctor, Sculptor

Rating:
Summary: The Definitive Work on A. Phimister Proctor
Review: Only the Amon Carter Museum, outstanding in its own right, could produce a book worthy of the legacy of A. Phimister Proctor. This handsome volume provides an invaluable guide to the sculptor's life and work. With the participation of Proctor's grandson (Phimister Proctor "Sandy" Church), Peter Hassrick combines words and images to create the definitive story of Proctor, including photographs of nearly all the important monumental art by Proctor in cities across the U.S. The illustrations--on nearly every page--cover Proctor's work and the many influences upon it. This museum-quality book proves that Proctor ranks with Remington, Russell, Waters, and Borglum in his accomplishments in sculpture and Western art.
