Summary: From the Jacket - "'True Art', wrote Heenry David Thoreau, ' is but the. expression of our love of nature.' No artist embodies this belief more than Eliot Porter. One of the Masters of color photography, Porter has awakened our senses and touched use deeply with his vision of Nature; his succession of remarkable books has transformed the attitudes of more than one generation towards the beauty of our world. Now, at the age of eighty-five, this poet of the camera reveals in personal reminiscence a lifetime of discovery, adventure and devotion to his art."
