There is also an introductory essay by James Enyeart, and a selection of Adam`s own writings on colour photography. Dustwrapper crisp and fine. There are small tea splash stains to the top edges of the text block trims, and these are intruding into some text margins at the top of the leading edges. Not all pages are affected by any means, and the stains only just affect the margins. The rear top edge of the cloth is a little stained, as is the rear inside top edge of the wrapper, but does not show on the outside. So VG in Fine wrapper overall.

Synopsis

In a career that spanned six decades, Ansel Adams was America's foremost landscape photographer and also one of its most ardent environmentalists. He began to use colour soon after Kodachrome was invented in the mid-1930s, and while much of his colour work was done "on assignment" he also did significant personal or "creative" photography in colour. The distinctive visualization of a scene and the technical mastery that characterize his black and white work are immediately evident in his colour work, but only a small fraction of the latter has hitherto been published. For this book the distinguished photographer Harry Callahan has made a selection of the best of Adams's colour work.
