Antsy Ansel: Ansel Adams, A Life in Nature
Written by Cindy Jenson-Elliott and illustrated by Christy Hale
New edition published by the Yosemite Conservancy
As a child, Ansel Adams just couldn’t sit still. He felt trapped indoors and never walked anywhere—he ran. Even when he sat, his feet danced. But in nature, Ansel felt right at home. He fell in love with the gusting gales of the Golden Gate, the icy white of Yosemite Valley, and countless other remarkable natural sights in the national parks and beyond. From his early days in San Francisco to the height of his glory nationwide, this book chronicles a restless boy’s path to becoming an iconic nature photographer.
