Dover Publications, 1992

Diego Rivera's Life Story
On a visit to Mexico City I saw this book at a store attached to a museum depicting some of the work of Diego Rivera, the Mexican mural painter. I promptly bought a paper - back copy of the book though at a greatly inflated price charged by the store.

Fantastic!
