Schimmelman, Janice G. BOOKS ON ART IN EARLY AMERICA: BOOKS ON ART, AESTHETICS AND INSTRUCTION AVAILABLE IN AMERICAN LIBRARIES AND BOOKSTORES THROUGH 1815
New Castle Oak Knoll Press 2007 6.5 x 9.5 inches cloth, dust jacket. 292 pages
First Edition. An expanded version of two of the author's previous publications, this bibliography covers a broad range of books on art in early America, including not only art treatises and instruction manuals but all books related to drawing, painting, engraving, sculpture, artist biography and the history of art. The bibliography covers art books up to 1815, the year that Thomas Jefferson sold his extensive book collection to the U.S. government to form a new Library of Congress. One hundred and eighty-three titles are included in the checklist, each with basic bibliographic information, followed by full catalogue references of the booksellers and/or libraries that listed the book. The checklist is followed by five appendices, listing the books by date of first catalogue reference, by the order of number of catalogue references, by library and bookseller in order of earliest reference and in order of collection size, and by the eighteenth-century American artist who read them. The books are also indexed by checklist number. This bibliography will be a useful tool for students and scholars of book collecting, art and American culture in general. Janice G. Schimmelman is a professor in the Department of Art and Art History at Oakland University. She has previously published two articles on this topic: "A Checklist of European Treatises on Art and Essays on Aesthetics Available in America Through 1815" in Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society and "Books on Drawing and Painting Techniques Available in Eighteenth-Century American Libraries and Bookstores" in Winterthur Portfolio: A Journal of American Material Culture.

Schneider, Rona AMERICAN PAINTER ETCHINGS: 1853-1908
New York The Grolier Club 1989 8.5 x 11 inches paperback 48 pages
This book focuses on the importance of American artists of the late nineteenth century, specifically etchers. Traveling long distances to find new material, they often overcame obstacles to find new images for their followers. Because of this, the book is organized by location rather than by artist or chronology. It includes sections on etching, European sources of inspirations, views from the etchers themselves, working methods, and an exhibition of art of the American Etching Revival. Scenes from the South, the West, Canada, New England, the Eastern seaboard, and urban landscapes are all portrayed. Richly illustrated, the book contains 79 black-and-white illustrations.

The book accompanies the exhibition held at the Grolier Club from February 21 to April 1, 1989. The exhibition examined the rise and fall of American Painter Etchings in the years between 1853 and 1908.
