Title: Know that you are lucky
Description: "This book provides a riveting overview of the development of a small business in San Francisco that is now one of the preeminent fine art print publishers of our time. Kathan Brown is an artist by training, a graceful writer, and a self-trained business woman, whose restless imagination marks every chapter. Her unlikely story takes through the ups and downs of fifty years at Crown Point Press, which stimulated renewed attention to the art of etching at a time when other print media were holding center stage...Her approach is direct and personal as she describes Crown Point press's multi-faceted undertakings, which have included not only published etchings and woodcuts, but books as well, along with holding educational workshops and running an in-house gallery" --
