Sal,
A/............... N/A
B/.............. 75 Years of Leica Photography
Publisher: The Leica Camera Group
Leica Order No. 942 - 150 1990
An extremely inspirational book simply because it illustrates how many
variations of photography can be enjoyed using a Leica, M or R. And
there is only one image for each photographer, which means the greats
and not so greats are equal! They each have a common bond..... the
Leica Camera. This book makes you want to get your ass out the door
and take pictures!
Second choice? Well what can I say, "This is Our Work. The Legacy of
Sir William Osler." It's motivational, interesting and I just like it.

C/ .......... PHOTOJOURNALISM. Pictures for Magazines and Newspapers
Author Arthur Rothstein. Publisher: American Photographic
Book Publishing Co. Inc.
Library of Congress #: 56-11558
This book is a must read for it's simplicity of explaining the values of
being a photojournalist and what it takes to be successful. Probably
only found on used book shelves.
