First Edition of Death Valley and the Creek Called Furnace; Signed by Famed Photographer Ansel Adams
First edition of this collaboration between Adams and Corle. Quarto, original cloth, illustrated. Signed by Ansel Adams on the half-title page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Uncommon signed.
In Death Valley and the Creek Called Furnace Adams photographed the arid land, the blazing bright sky, the sand hills and gaunt rocks, the sagebrush and mesquite, the desolate peaks that are Death Valley. His camera caught the form, the shape, the spirit of the desert, where a less discerning eye might see only desolation. Corle's prose and Adams' photography are combined to create a book of great beauty, preserving the spirit and face of barren wilderness.
