<p><b>Winner of the 2021 BC and Yukon Book Prizes' Bill Duthie Booksellers' Choice Award</b></p><p><i><b>Boat lovers of all ages and people who enjoy the scenery of BC’s coast will delight in this charming gift book, a worthy addition to books about BC’s art history.</b></i></p><p>In the course of his career, one of BC’s most beloved painters, E. J. Hughes (1913–2007), depicted paddle wheelers, steamships, fishing boats, and car ferries. Now <i>The E. J. Hughes Book of Boats</i> brings many of his coastal paintings of boats together in one handsome volume—a book for art lovers and boating enthusiasts alike. </p><p>Robert Amos is the official biographer of E. J. Hughes, and works with the participation of the Estate of E. J. Hughes. <i>The Book of Boats</i> follows the success of his two geographically-based volumes, <i>E. J. Hughes Paints Vancouver Island</i> (2018) and <i>E. J. Hughes Paints British Columbia</i> (2019). This new compendium features never-before-seen sketches and photographs accompanying full-page illustrations of some of the artist’s finest works.</p>
