This isn't a perfect book, but it seems to be the only one available on this important and intriguing subject. There are so many participants that the narrative often gets diffuse or devolves into a list of which photographers participated in which exhibitions. And of course there aren't nearly enough images reproduced with the text. But she gives a strong idea of the personalities of f.64's main protagonists - I love the image of Imogen Cunningham chewing out Edward Weston for his serial infidelities. And I enjoyed being introduced to photographers like Consuelo Kanaga and Alma Lavenson who were unfamiliar to me.
