Bringing out the unexpected in the photographic enthusiast June 30, 1998
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Unlike most books on photography or photographers, this focuses more on the thoughts and relationships of Adams rather than an actual narrative of his life. The result is unexpected enlightenment: the core of the man including his attitudes, politics, and relationships. The reader also finds that he is drawn to focus on his own insights on feelings, attitudes, and creative essence. It is very easy to come a point where one attains the feeling he actually knows Adams although relatively little is actually stated in straight terms about him.
The best choice for an appreciation of Ansel Adams. May 13, 1997
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Ansel Adams was a photographer. Everyone knows that. Here you learn he was also an artist, a concert pianist, and a philosopher/humanitarian.Although only the images from Chapter 1 were hand-picked by him, the book reflects a warmth that only Ansel could have put in to it.
