A book about ancient Greek satirist Lucian in his cultural and historical context. "My conclusion is that we need hardly ever look outside the second century for the immediate and personal sources of Lucian’s inspiration." – Barry Baldwin
“Carving The Way Of Stone – A Sculptor’s Art” provides a definitive and clear insight into the world of stone sculpture. Barry Baldwin, one of the most respected European sculptors, expounds in detail the knowledge gained over almost half a century from his ‘hands on’ experience in working stone. The wealth of information the book contains constitutes a valuable, must-read guide to sculptors at all levels, as well as those in the field of education and research who wish to be wisely informed. Not least, the book will also serve to enlighten and provide a clearer understanding to people who readily express a fascination for the subject of stone sculpture but all too often in the past have been left mystified by it. The book, comprising of 13 chapters, contains 150 photographs and illustrations, with written content amounting to 34,000 words.
