    Minor White's essays

    Where can one find them? I'm having a bit of trouble digging them up at present. I love his work, and would like to read what he had to say about photography, but I can't find any of his written works. Anyone know where they can be had?

    Interlibrary Loan at your local library. They should be able to get you just about everything you are looking for.

    I guess I was hoping there might be an alternative source for his writings, say as PDFs through some art site, as the book noted above, which I got to look at briefly once and have lusted after since, is way out of my price range at present time.

    Photographers on Photography published by Prentice Hall has a couple - [probably can be found for pennies on ABE...) and there is another in Photography: Essays *& Images by Newhall

    Both these have a wide range of essays by numerous photographers
