Edward Hopper

Each volume in Raintree Biographies tells the life story of an individual of extraordinary achievement, from the world of politics, literature, art, war, or science. Material used directly from primary and secondary sources combines with an exciting, accessible narrative and contemporary photos and illustrations to portray not just an individual's life but the setting, in terms of time and place, in which it was lived. Readers will learn not just the facts--the "whens, wheres, and whats"-- but the reasons why.
