I am a fan of black and white photography and love this beautiful book!

The introduction talks about his lifes work. The first camera Ansel Adams received was in 1916 at the age of fourteen. He was deeply influenced by Paul Strand - an American Photographer and Filmmaker.

Sections covered are "Canyons and Caverns", "Mountains and Skies", "Portraits and Close-ups", an "Indian Life, Past and Present".

In addition to his natural scenes, are images of Georgia O'Keeffe and Dorothea Lange along with others he admired and photographed.

It was good to see photographs included of Ansel Adams receiving awards of distinction a few years prior to his death in 1984.
