"Higher Ground consists of intimate portraits of the passengers on Brooklyn's elevated trains, passengers variously lost in reverie, locked in fantasies, suspended animatedly between destinations. These brilliant photographs, capturing the dialectic between desire and disappointment, anxiety and comfort, ultimately remind us of our own continuous rites of passage as human beings."--Henry Louis Gates.

Photographs by Thomas Roma; essays by Ian Frazier and Ellen Handy. 96 pages; 115 duo-toned b&w illustrations; 8.25 x 11.25 inches. Ships the next business day, wrapped in padding, in a box.
