Lust for life: The biography of Van Gogh
By Irving Stone
Vincent van Gogh is my favorite painter, and Stone captures his fascinating life brilliantly and lovingly.
My first copy of this book I loaned out. Never should have done that, it is probably still circulating out there, if the spine holds.

Dear Theo: The Autobiography of Vincent Van Gogh
If you prefer the story straight from the Artst's mouth, this is the one.
To Buy
Van Gogh, the complete paintings
If you want the art also, and who doesn't, this is a pretty good volume (two, actually) with well-reproduced illustrations.
How the hell they manage to sell this big work at such a price is beyond me.
