Born on February 20, 1902, Ansell Adams has captured the hearts of millions of people with his photographs. He is most famous for his photographs in United States National Parks during the depression.
Ansell Adams in National Parks is a treasure that all fans will adore. With crisp black and white photography, Adams made the parks come alive for people who were unable to see them for themselves. His photographs have inspired a nation to take better care of nature.
Packed with over 225 amazing photographs, some of which have never been published before, this book is perfect for nature lovers and a must have for Ansell Adams fans! This is not a coffee table book that will sit and collect dust. My husband and I have gone through it several times already and will continue to do so. It calls out to me and every time I look through it I notice something that I hadn’t noticed before.
Ansell Adams died in 1984 but he lives on through his exquisite photographs. His work will never go out of style. This book is a special keepsake and would make a perfect gift. In fact, we are purchasing a copy of it for a gift for my dear SIL (hope she’s not reading this.)
Thanks a million to Anna Balasi of Hachette Book Group for sending me this book for review.
5/5

Ansel Adams was a master, so I bet this book is stunning.
Kathy, it is! I think you would love it.
Sounds like a lot of pics
I love books about National Parks, especially those out west like the Grand Canyon.
