(NY), Aperture, (1998). A book of photographs taken collaboratively by Laura McPhee (daughter of John McPhee) and Virginia Beahan, using a fifty-pound, 40 year-old, Deardorff camera. McPhee's and Beahan's photographs concentrate on the ways in which people interact with the landscapes around them, and the images are striking, often startling, in their content, while the camera used gives them a degree of vividness and detail that seems almost preternatural. Signed by Laura McPhee and Virginia Beahan. Six-page afterword by John McPhee. Oblong quarto; fine in a fine, price-clipped dust jacket. [#025132] SOLD
