A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Bill Coleman was fifty years old, and a successful portrait photographer when his life took a considerable change in direction. Driving on a country road one day in rural Pennsylvania, he was about to pass an Amish buggy slowly moving in front of him when he noticed that its rear wheel was about to fall off. He stopped the driver and helped him right the wheel. As a result of this chance meeting, a growing friendship developed between Coleman and these Old Order Amish that has lasted for decades. Reluctant models, the Amish slowly warmed to him and Coleman's portfolio of images is grand in its scale and historical significance. We are honored to present a small collection of Coleman's work in this book.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Gift of Friendship explores the value of friendship in our lives. Combining the Amish photography of Bill Coleman with excerpts and quotations from literature, poetry, and film on the subject of companionship, this book lovingly presents, in words and pictures, the spirit of loyalty and affection that friends offer each other.

Friends are important in our lives for many reasons, but expressing sentiments on the subject can be awkward for some and feelings are rarely spoken aloud. The photographs and quotations gathered in this book reaffirm the value of this special relationship and help to express it with sincerity, warmth, and wit.
