I have followed Mccurry's photography since his India Train period. I'm his age and did a tiny fraction of his travel, doing film photography, then followed a different path. The book is massive is size and weight; my husband was skeptical when I announced I wanted it at the bookstore. But reading about Mccurry's experiences, seeing the old tickets, typewriter-generated contract letters, postcards, and incredible pictures has been delicious. My husband joked this morning that I'm probably one of 10 people in the world actually reading this book word for word. That's true and my only wish would have been a bit larger font for my tired old eyes. A big thanks to Bonnie Mccurry for supporting her brother throughout his career, and putting this book together.
