Ansel Adams: Letters 1916-1984

Summary: peeking into a part of his life
Review: Pouring over letters to and from Ansel Adams brings you closer to the photographer. From a telegram to his father in 1920 asking for $20.00 to buy a burro (and letting him know that he'd sell it at the end of the season for $10.00) to touching letters to his wife over the years. His descriptions of nature are as wonderful as his photographs. He writes to US presidents, newspaper editors,friends, family and more. You see the scope, imagination,and honesty of a man and a fantastic photographer.

You laugh,cry and share the man; Ansel Adams. Interesting personal photographs in the book also.
