As lovely a book as any we've seen from this admirable, newish West Coast publisher. A history of one of the world's fine specialty department stores, its focus is on oriental and classical western art and crafts, the buyers, the objects, the family. A very tasteful (and respectful) treatment (we do not find mention of the anaesthetic union with Macmillan Publishing). Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
