I ordered mine through Ted and its a very nice bonus to have a personal inscription from my friend inside! Incidentally I opted for the premium paper and hard cover. I can see appreciably better reproduction in some shots compared to ones reproduced in early (non premium paper) copies of our '12 Leica Users' book. Also the quality of the medical shots compares very favourably to the larger scale commercial reproduction in Ted's 'Women in Medicine' volume. As others have commented this is a marvellous volume full of vintage Grant. Despite our sushi munching author's oft expressed preference in the title, there really is a goodly serving of color in there. Anyway a terrific sampling of many years of Ted's work. Definitely not to be missed by anyone who appreciates Ted's experience and skill. Hours of browsing for any photographic eye. So much to enjoy and learn from. Stacks of very newsworthy and iconic shots from around the whole planet as well as Ted's beloved Canada of course. -- Cheers Geoff 'Life's not B&W, except at both ends' http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman
