About this title: Previously published in 1959, Frank's most famous and influential photography book contained a series of deceptively simple photos that he took on a trip through America in 1955 and 1956. These pictures of everyday people still speak to us today, 40 years and several generations later.

"These black and white photos, shot in the 1950s by a Swiss immigrant photographer, often show a desolate side of life in the United States. Ranging from bars and funerals, city and countryside, even the glamour shot of a Hollywood movie opening seems to have a dark side."
"Great collection of black & white photographs with a delightful intro by Jack Kerouac, who concludes with a personal message to Robert Frank: You got eyes."
