Editorial Reviews: Product Description The Photographs of Ansel Adams with the Writings of John Muir This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ansel Adams whose landmark early photographs of wild America, originally taken for the Works Progress Administration, fill the pages of this splendid volume. Adams' breathtaking images are accompanied by excerpts from the writings of Sierra Club founder John Muir, the renowned conservationist who devoted his life to celebrating and preserving the American wilderness.

Customer Reviews: Read 8 more reviews... American Photography at its Best June 15, 2007 Breathtaking photos. Especially in light of the rudimentary equipment available at the time they were taken. Proves that Ansel Adams is still unsurpassed in American photography. Captures the majesty and beauty of the vanishing American wilderness. Members of Congress should view this work before voting to open refuge or wild lands to drilling and logging. Poor quality May 3, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Poor reproduction quality. Actually no quality. As educational book, to study composition or something like that, perhaps the book serves. Not Worth Looking At April 5, 2006 9 out of 10 found this review helpful Poor reproduction quality. Actually no quality. Not approved by the Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust. Adams wouldn't have approved July 18, 2005 19 out of 19 found this review helpful While some photos are reasonable, most are seriously flawed. Some are flat, some are excessively contrasty, others seem murky and indistinct. Some of the photos need cleaning to remove dust spots, etc. Even the title is wrong , as the book includes photos of dams and sheep. There are many other excellent books, which have been prepared from Adams prints and produced with much more care. Buy one of those. Are we looking at the same book? January 1, 2005 29 out of 29 found this review helpful Many of Ansel Adams' exquisite photographs call out for large reproductions, and this book displays them in a decent size format. But what a waste. The reproductions are nearly all flat and murky, with little detail in the shadow. If I had read far enough down into the customer reviews, I would have been warned; but the reviews at the top of the stack were quite favorable. Which leads me to wonder: Are we looking at the same book? I advise readers to purchase Adams books published by Little, Brown, and Company (aka "Bulfinch"). Even at smaller sizes their books display much more detail and clarity than does this disappointing edition.
