“Literary criticism as elegantly written as the works themselves.”

For five years my award-winning book review column Top Shelf was published.each Friday in the Festiva Magazine insert of The Monitor. Here are links to some of those reviews.
My husband and I read your Top Shelf review of “In Artisans of Michoacan:By Their Hands” and found it very interesting. Is this a book written by Travis Whitehead and if so, where can we purchase a copy? Re Valley Life issue Thursday, November 7, 2013 Thanks!
