The revised and expanded edition of the only book of Ansel
Adamss color photography, beautifully redesigned and
including previously unpublished images.
Renowned as Americas pre-eminent black-and-white
landscape photographer, Ansel Adams began to photo-
graph in color soon after Kodachrome lm was invented in
the mid 1930s. He made nearly 3,500 color photographs, a
small fraction of which were published for the rst time in
the 1993 edition of ANSEL ADAMS IN COLOR. In this
newly revised and expanded edition, 20 unpublished
photographs have been added. New digital scanning and
printing technologies also mean that the book now offers a
more faithful representation of Adamss color photography.

The original edition of ANSEL ADAMS IN COLOR
(978-0-821-21980-5, LB, 1993), sold over 100,000
copies and was called an instant collectible by the
Chicago Tribune.
Following the format of the New York Times bestselling
Ansel Adams: 400 Photographs (978-0-316-11772-2, LB,
2007), this edition features a modern design by Lance
Hidy and a signicantly lower price point than the
original.
John P. Schaefer, president emeritus of the University of
Arizona, has been a Trustee of the Ansel Adams Trust for
30 years. Andrea G. Stillman, who worked with Adams in
the 1970s, is the foremost expert on his work.
