Customer Reviews

I was required to pick this book up for a Photojournalism 2 course in college. Typically, I dread having to buy textbooks because they're boring, impractical and too expensive. While, this book isn't the cheapest in the world, it's a great read. I've cruised through my assigned chapters and am actually ahead of where I need to be. Plus, the photos are great.
