Agreed on both counts.  Also if you like books of documentary
photography and don't have a copy of 'Dorchester Days':
http://www.amazon.com/Dorchester-Days-Eugene-Richards/dp/0714840017

and

'The Fat Baby':
http://www.amazon.com/Fat-Baby-Eugene-Richards/dp/071484196X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1244708578&sr=8-1

you're doing yourself a disservice.  The writing in The Fat Baby is
also better than credible, particularly for such a stellar
photographer.  The book is worth it just for the story about Richards
going home to help his elderly father move to Florida.  B.D. Colen
said it better than I can here:
