The Photo Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This is the book that I hand my photography students when they just want to "look and be inspired". It offers a wonderful assortment of artists from Niepce to Arbus. The photos are beautifully reproduced and the book is just a joy to look at. It should be on everyone's shelf or coffeetable. Buy 2 - the first one will eventually wear out from use!
For Anyone Who Takes Pictures
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I've had this book since 1997 and I still refer to it for ideas. It has such a unique and diverse pictorial on each page by 'grand' and 'credible' photographers. For anyone who takes pictures...likes pictures...this BOOK is a MUST GET for you. I have it on my coffee table and I get rave comments on it all of the time about what a GREAT book it is.

This is the most complete, comprehensive, and fun photography book I've ever seen. It covers 150 years, the entire history of the medium, in an appealing and easy-to-use format. A great reference guide and educational as well. I especially like the cross-referencing system. 500 photos. from A to Z.
