Today a friend commented that he found it difficult to find good books on, or containing inspiring photography.

I thought I would list some of my personal favorites for him and workshop participants.

L'Histoire de France

The Spirit of Burgundy

Stay this Moment
by Sam Abell

Pictures from the Country
by Richard W. Brown

Portraits of Earth

I'll try to add to this list later, but these are the ones that jump to mind.
