| John Vachon's America |
| From 1936 to 1943 John Vachon travelled across America as part of the Farm Security Administration's photography project, documenting the desperate world of the Great Depression and also the efforts at resistance--from stoic determination to strikes. This book, the first to feature Vachon's work, offers a stirring and elegant record of his photographic vision and of America's land and people as the country moved from the depths of the depression to mobilization for WW2. |
