| |  | | | From The Publisher "Norman Rockwell's hundreds of memorable covers for The Saturday Evening Post made him a twentieth-century American icon. However, because of the very popularity and accessibility of his idealized depictions of middle-class life, his more serious paintings have been largely ignored, and he has often been deemed not a "real" artist but a mere illustrator." Symptomatic of Rockwell's critical neglect is the fact that he has never been the subject of a serious, comprehensive biography. In Norman Rockwell, Laura Claridge breaks new ground with her appreciative but clear-eyed view of Rockwell's art - and his life. Based upon previously unpublished family archives - including the artist's personal journal, newly discovered by the author - as well as hundreds of freshly conducted interviews, this account is especially enriched by the full cooperation of Rockwell's three sons.
