"Ansel Adams at 100" is the most significant book yet on the great photographers work, edited and with text by legendary curator John Szarkowski. John Szarkowski has painstakingly selected what he considers Adams greatest work - 114 images - and has attempted to find the single best photographic print of each. He notes, It includes many photographs that will be unfamiliar to lovers of Adams work, and a substantial number that will be new to Adams scholars. This book, with Szarkowskis incisive essay, is the first serious effort since Adams death in 1984 to re-evaluate his achievement as an artist.
