I bought this book for my wife who loves this illustrator's work. I have seen the illustrations on various websites and they are beautiful. However, I was very disappointed when the book arrived and I discovered that ALL of the internal illustration are black and white (this is not mentioned in the description of the book) printed on paper that looks like quality newsprint. Who in their right mind would publish these beautiful illustrations in black and white? What is the point? I'm hoping to get my money back from Alibris for this worthless book.
