Customer Reviews

Good series of books for the price!

The Phaidon 55 series of photobooks is a good series of books for the price. They all offer a good overview of the photographers work in the form of 55 representative images each. The text, written by a different author in each book, varies book to book from abysmally and overly high brow arty, to pretty good and clear.These books are small and easy to carry around with you. They also look good on a shelf together as a series. I recommend them as a good low-cost introduction to some great and some just ok but still famous photographers.
