This book arrived today. If you are a Carleton Watkins fanboy this is a must have. The prints are about 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 which means they are reduced to about 2/3s the size of the original prints. It's a shame it couldn't be full size but then I wouldn't be able to lift the book. Beautifully done with many essays. It's at a very reasonable price.
It's amazing what a master can do with wet plates and albumen prints.
