BEWARE! Unfinished business
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is an exhaustive bio . . . but the author, James Mellow died before finishing the book. I read it with great interest, but because of this unfortunate occurance, the book is unfinished. So, if you're looking for a birth to death bio of one of my photo hero's, I suggest you go some where else.
This book is a complete view of the Evans work and life.
