DOROTHEA LANGE - LINDA GORDON KARTONIERT (TB)

We all know Dorothea Lange's iconic photos-the Migrant Mother holding her child  the shoeless
children of the Dust Bowl-but now renowned American historian Linda Gordon brings them to
three-dimensional life in this groundbreaking exploration of Lange's transformation into a
documentarist. Using Lange's life to anchor a moving social history of twentieth-century
America  Gordon masterfully re-creates bohemian San Francisco  the Depression  and the
Japanese-American internment camps. Accompanied by more than one hundred images-many of them
previously unseen and some formerly suppressed-Gordon has written a sparkling  fast-moving
story that testifies to her status as one of the most gifted historians of our time. Finalist
for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize  a New York Times Notable Book  New Yorker's A Year's
Reading  and San Francisco Chronicle Best Book.
