An error by Amazon
While Hutchison's "Guide to Research" is outstanding -- I turn to it ofen -- all of the material in Amazon's entry is about her biography of Durer, another excellent and very separate volume. Amazon has conflated the two, harming both books.

A research guide
This book is a research guide, not a biography, which is only valuable to a subset of scholars.There are no illustrations.Do not buy this book.

Excellent peek into the world of Durer
After collecting my 15th Durer book I found a friend who was travelling to Germany and asked for a book IN GERMAN about Durer. The book she brought was actually the book written in english and translated to German. I was delighted! This caused me to reread the english and follow along, as best I could, with the german text. What a pleasure and an underscore to how multitalented and unenjoyed Durer is. From a precocious 12 year old {doing one of the first recognized self portaits} to a traveller of the world, seeker of perspective truth and with humor at his side {read his letters to his friend Pirckhiemer}. Jane C.Hutchinson tells a story worth reading whether you are an artist or just someone who recognizes beauty.

Product Description
In the common practice of Christian churches, across many traditions, a call to worship is typically a few lines of Scripture (or a combination of Scripture texts) expressed at the beginning of a church service.The call to worship exhorts God’s people to turn from worldly distractions and to focus hearts, minds and actions on revering him.
If you are involved with leading worship in the church or in the home your next question will be ‘Where do I go to find them?’ Fortunately, Robert Vasholz has done the leg-work for you in this book.
The first section is designed to address specific events common to the Church such as Christmas, Easter, etc.The second section pertains to calls to worship that ask for an audible response from God’s people. The third part offers a number of calls to worship from the minister alone.It is my honest desire that this will serve as a proper and dignified way to enhance public corporate worship and to invite God’s people to be attentive to the service that follows. ...
