Barber, Craig. Ghosts in the Landscape: Vietnam Revisited by Craig Barber. Essay by Alison Devine Nordstrom.

Umbrage, 2006.  First edition. 112 pages. Hardcover in protected dust jacket, almost like new with just a trace of wear only upon close examination.  Well known for his landscape photography, Barber was a marine in Vietnam for twenty months during the Vietnam War. This book is the result of three trips he made there between 1995 and 1998.  He worked with self-constructed pinhole cameras to create large format negatives, from which he made platinum prints on textured paper.  This oblong innovative book is presented in the form of diptychs and triptychs, as they were shot by Barber in the field, resulting in panoramic views with vertical black lines separating the images.  Nordstrom, photo curator at the George Eastman Museum, provides an illuminating essay on Barber's life and work.  List of the 46 plates in the back of the book.  Note: scans of covers are cropped a bit because the book is a little too large to fit on my scanner.
