This is one of the more outstanding books which have reference to Robert Henri and The Eight. I will continue to recommend and acquire this item as long as it's available.
This book is sold at a museum dedicated to Robert Henri and once you look at it you'll see why. The cover, The Art Student, painted by Henri of Josephine Nivision (eventually married to Edward) Hopper you'll know why this book is a keeper. The cover is indicative of the content.
