Aegean Wall Painting: A Tribute to Mark Cameronedited by L. MorganUntil his premature death in 1984 at the age of 45, Mark Cameron made a unique contribution to the study of Minoan wall painting; his published articles continue to inspire a new generation of Aegean wall painting and have expanded our perception of the Aegean and its relations with the neighboring cultures during the second millennium BC. This volume, dedicated to the memory of Mark Cameron, now brings together leading scholars in a presentation of some of the latest ideas in the field of Aegean painting. Contributors include: M. Bietak, A. Chapin, S. Hood, S. Immerwahr, R. Jones, N. Marinatos, L. Morgan, M. Shaw, C. Palyvou, E. Photos-Jones, I. Tzachili and P. Warren. 
Review Quote"...a fine tribute..beaustifully illustrated with several fragments not previously published and 90 color plates along with an additional 135 black and white plates. It is a welcome addition to an ever-growing field." Catherine Lyon Crawford
