For sixty years, Ansel Adams photographed among the great peaks of Yosemite National Park and the High Sierra range — the range of light. Inspired by their grandeur, their wildness, and their primeval mystery, he made photographs that were to become the icons, the symbols, of America's national park ethic. During his lifetime Adams published seven books of images from this region; this new book brings together in a single volume the finest photographs from this vast body of work. His writings — alive with anecdote and insight — provide a backdrop for these stirring images, and John Szarkowski's introduction provides testimony to the enduring impact of Adams' Yosemite vision. Yosemite and the High Sierra represents Adams' legacy at its most distilled, and timeless. |

Dear axolotl: Why do you have feathers growing out of your head? Axolotl: They aren't feathers — they're gills! They let me breathe underwater. Let's face it. Even as babies, we humans pay close attention to faces. Observing another person's features and expressions tells us whether they are happy, angry, excited, or sad. And when we look at an animal, it's hard not to imagine that its face is communicating human feelings. This isn't true, of course. Squinty eyes, an upturned mouth, or another odd expression is probably there because, in some way, it helps that animal survive. Packed with many cool facts and visuals on where certain animals live and what they eat, this book captures twenty-five humorous — and very true-explanations of why animals look the way they do in order to exist in this world. |
