"Wilderness was destiny for Ansel Adams from his first discovery of the natural beauty of his western homeland as a boy. And wilderness ordained his life through the years dedicated to exploring, photographing, and preserving Yosemite Valley, the High Sierra, and those other Edens vanishing with the American frontier. Now, in this magnificent volume, the land he loved and strived to protect endures as he saw it - undefiled, incomparable - and is championed in words as eloquent and impassioned as his legendary photographs. From the coast of Maine to the remotest peaks of Alaska, in image after image, many published here for the first time, 'the grandeurs and potentials of the one and only world which we inhabit' command astonishment and concern."-- From dust jacket.
