Copies of the cloth bound 496-page publication illstrated with 243 color images may be purchased at the Hammes Bookstore on campus or online from the Indiana University Press website at a cost of $70 plus shipping and handling.

This exhibition is supported with funding provided by The Kathleen and Richard Champlin Endowment.
