272 pages including glossary. Occasional black and white illustrations. "The literature in the readers of the lower grades must be largely that of the nursery tale and fairy lore, but when the children have reached the middle period of their public school course - in the Third Reader - they may be introduced with profit to more mature forms of literature, and acquire at an early age a taste for reading good books... A careful reading of properly chosen selections cannot fail to extend the knowledge of the pupils as well as to improve their taste and to develop their power of expression... The highest aim of all good teaching is the development of character, and the selections for practice in oral reading should illustrate the virtues in which the children should be established - the virtues that make for material success, and those especially that form and strengthen right principles of conduct and life." - from the preface. Contains primarily selections drawn from the works of writers in Britain with input from some of Canada's best known writers. Prescribed for use in the schools of British Columbia. Illustrated brown cloth front board reads "The British Columbia Readers - Third Reader." Writing and scribbing upon front endpaper, few marks otherwise. Well worn boards with no major defects.

"Robert Motherwell (1915-1991), uno dei pionieri dell'espressionismo astratto, pervenne all'arte dopo aver condotto i suoi studi nelle migliori università americane. Fu il grande storico dell'arte Meyer Schapiro a consigliargli di intraprendere la carriera artistica. Presto ebbe importanti riconoscimenti: a soli ventinove anni tenne infatti la sua prima mostra monografica nella leggendaria galleria newyorchese di Peggy Guggenheim (1944). L'anno successivo Motherwell con la moglie andò a vivere a East Hampton, una cittadina molto frequentata dai newyorchesi e situata nella parte orientale di Long Island, e si fece progettare e costruire una casa dall'architetto francese Pierre Chareau, l'autore della celebre "Casa di vetro" parigina. Motherwell trascorrerà la maggior parte dei sei anni successivi a East Hampton. Fino ad oggi nessuna mostra e nessun catalogo dedicati a Motherwell sono stati focalizzati su questo periodo cruciale per la sua maturazione artistica. Durante i suoi anni ad East Hampton l'artista creò dipinti, collage e disegni che contribuirono a fare dell'astrazione la lingua franca dell'arte prodotta Oltreoceano. Motherwell possedeva una sensibilità minimalista: i migliori lavori di questi anni sono caratterizzati da un uso parsimonioso di colori e forme. Per esempio, del suo dipinto "Wall Painting with Stripes" (1944) spiegò: "Non sono interessato ad abbellire la realtà, ma nel trovare un singolo, intenso e diretto senso di unità con essa"
