Landscapes for the People: George Alexander Grant, First Chief Photographer of the National Park Service Tapa dura - 2015
de Ren Davis; Helen Davis; Foreword by Timothy Davis
Descripción de contraportada
The national park idea owes a tremendous debt to the photographers who captured the beauty of America s most special places, ultimately inspiring people to push for their protection. William Henry Jackson, Carleton Watkins, and Ansel Adams are the best known, but now Ren and Helen Davis finally give George Grant the attention he so richly deserves. As the first chief photographer of the National Park Service, Grant traveled ceaselessly to capture more than thirty thousand images, documenting a crucial moment when the park system underwent tremendous growth and transformation. Millions of people have seen his work without knowing his name or his story. The centennial of the National Park Service serves as good reason to rectify that.
Dayton Duncan, producer of The National Parks: America s Best Idea
For more than two decades, George A. Grant, chief National Park Service photographer, traveled throughout this land producing superb images of America s most iconic scenery and historic sites, including those of the ancient past. Although little known to the public, Grant belongs in the pantheon of this country s great landscape photographers, such as William Henry Jackson and Ansel Adams. This is Grant s first full biography, with a gallery of his photographs for enjoyment by your fireside or in the classroom.
