First Edition / First Printing. As New in As New Dust Jacket. 64 pages. Retrospective collection of photographs. One of the most beautiful photography books of its kind in our time.

Evocative black-and-white photographs of peoples and places very faraway: The roads not taken of China, Tibet, Bhutan, and Ladakh. "Snider's interest in the people he encountered during his travels was equalled only by his love of photography itself and by his command of light, composition, and design" (Sylvia Wolf). These luminous images speak eloquently for themselves. An absolute "must-have" title for Larry Snider collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed and inscribed in black pen on the title page by the photographer: "With best wishes and many fond memories, Larry Snider". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipients are named, and they are unmistakably known to the photographer. This title is now collectible. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty.
