I have a few books that I have purchased over the years. One in particular, Roman Loranc's Two Hearted Oak has appreciated in price (not that I'm going to sell.) I also have Sexton's Recollections, and a few others - Robert Frank's - The Americans and one of Eggleston's (both new editions). Seeing that collecting photos by some of these photographers can be rather expensive, I would like to get a little collection going of books (affordable ones at that.) I'd like to hear from all of you who you might recommend. I'm not much into "post modern" stuff as a rule although I will look at any suggestions. I recently looked at the new book by Zoe Strauss and was extrenmely disappointed even though Zoe has been annointed by the photo critics.
Loranc has a new book coming out this spring and I have my name on one of them. Mind you, not looking to make any money, just want to do some collecting of some of those photographers that I might like. So any suggestions are appreciated. Knowns, unknowns, let me hear your suggestions. Thanks. Jim Becia
