William C. Reeve Livres

The book chronicles Peter Pringle's life and legacy through nearly 180 color and 65 historical black-and-white photographs, highlighting his celebrated decoys and their journey after his death in 1953. It firmly establishes Pringle as a master craftsman, detailing his achievements and the enduring impact of his work in the field of decoy making.

In Grillparzer's Libussa William Reeve provides an important interpretation of a work that has received little detailed attention from European and American critics. The play has been dealt with in a broader context in numerous monograph-length overviews or introductions to Grillparzer, but this is the first time that it has received the careful consideration it deserves.
