First published in 1963, John D. Rosenberg's The Genius of John Ruskin aimed to make Ruskin's ideas and writings accessible to the modern reader, and it quickly became a classic. Long out of print, this important anthology is now available with a new foreword by Herbert F. Tucker and an expanded and updated bibliography by the author that takes into account recent Ruskin scholarship.

| February 28, 2021 | Edited by sborman | Open Library book description says it was authored by John Ruskin, but I personally feel it would be more accurate to say that it is "Edited by John D. Rosenberg". I therefore filled in the Author field of this form in that way. Thanks for the Open Library. |
