From the publisher: "Michel Lambeth (1923-1977) is one of the dominant figures of twentieth century Canadian photography; renowned for both his portrait of Toronto in the 1950s and his photojournalistic work of the 1960s. Parallel to his career as a photographer was his private pursuit as a writer. The Confessions of a Tree Taster is the memoir of his youth, his discovery of Europe, love and art. It is a rare treasure, revealing the visual artist as master storyteller. This volume was published in celebration of the Public Archives of Canada's major retrospective, Michel Lambeth: Photographer, curated by Michael Torosian.".…
