About This Item
University Press of Mississippi, 1993. Soft cover. Very Good. 28 Roman-numeralled pages precede the 226 photographs on unnumbered pages, some of which take up a page or more, while some are smaller photos grouped on one page. Black and white photographs taken by the author Eudora Welty in her native Mississippi, most of them during her time as a Works Progress Administration "publicity agent, junior grade" during the Great Depression; at the end of the book are photos of her family. Introduction by Reynolds Price is followed by a 1989 interview with Welty on her career in photography, its techniques and various cameras. 9" x 10", reading crease, light shelf wear, a bit of soil to edges, pages unmarked. Bonus: a laid-in 2009 clipping from the TLS - essay by Paul Binding, an appreciation of EW's work in this field. The higher cost that shipping this heavy book will incur has been incorporated into the price.
