A collection about the last five decades3
David Muench the Grandseigneur of landscape photography shows us his latest book in this edition. He divided it into five sections, north, north central, central south and west. What can you expect ? It's an collection of color fotos over the last five decades most of them never published before. Some are really impressing but a lot of them like you and I would have done in comparabel manner. The colors of the older photos are a little bit unsatturated. O-K- they have a historical value, especially the photos of Glen Canyon now laying under lake powell's surface.
But I think the reasen so many photos are not published before is simply, David have done better ones.
My conclusion is this book is a book for David Muench lovers and accomplished his work with some great photos and a lot of photos in the middle range. But there is no need to buy this book when you are starting to sample coffee table books about Arizona. I can recommended Jack Dykinga's "ARIZONA" or David Muench's first "ARIZONA" book.

Great gift idea4
If you are looking for a gift for someone that thinks AZ is fascinating this is it.
