the Great Depression's Finest Photographers Introduce America to Itself

Picturing a Nation

Sarah Sammis

This book is divided up into regions, regions that mimic the way the actual FSA project was divvied up. Each chapter then presents things thematically, jumping from photographer to photographer as the subject / theme demands.

There's also an included history, both of the events depicted as well as the careers of the photographer's included. Neither, though, is very extensive. This is really more of a sample plate of photographs rather than a comprehensive look at the FSA archive or how well it accomplished (or not) it's stated goal.
