This is a big book by a prolific, provocative and highly original author with an established following amounting to a cult. The book is wide-ranging in the extreme but concentrates mainly on photographic history and technology (particularly of the Rolleiflex), amateur "glamour"/erotic snaps, and mysterious landscape photographs (again taken by amateurs) imbued with an eerie power that was often accidentally achieved.
