Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover, missing dust jacket. 4to (8.75 x 10.75 in.). . This is the first U.S. release of this title, the original being 1962 in Europe. Produced in collaboration with Aperture, the quarterly journal of photography. Grey textured cloth over the boards, black debossed lettering on the fron…t and spine. Nice enough condition with some aging signs along the edges. Cloth is good, pages are clean and in good shape. Binding is age loose but solid. Paul Strand lived on the island of South Uist for 3 months in 1954, an episode that resulted in these photos. The accompanying text by Davidson gives the basics on the people of the Hebrides Islands as well as Strand's approach, which was to interweave the lives of the people with their somewhat harsh environment. In Gaelic, "Tir A' Mhurain" translates to 'The Land of Bent Grass'. This book shows strong work that has gathered much praise over the years.
