Not your run - of - the - mill art coffee table book! Anthony's images literally jump out at the viewer and bring a love of Clear Lake and a passion for Ceago into our mind's eye. Sheer vibrancy draws us to this book---give it everyone, but keep a copy for yourself next to your bed so you can be at Ceago vicariously.
