Rust colored cloth with gilt letters on the front cover and the spine. Just touches of wear to extremities, cloth clean, gilt bright (!), all photos in fine condition, else fine with no internal markings. Dust jacket fine with no defects. This is just a stunning collection of some of Ansel Adams' most famous photographs with an illuminating essay by the celebrated scholar, librarian and writer, Lawrence Clark Powell--a powerful pairing of talents. "[This book]includes] some of his best known images, but most of the contents have been seldom, if ever, seen or reproduced before. Superb extended range photolithography, closely supervised by Adams at every step, captures the full scale of the photographer's images. This book is not a travelogue, but a powerful and evocative record of a unique landscape--its people, its architecture and detail." [from the dust jacket].
