"For a man who's been known for black-and-white photography, it looks like he just won the color lottery." — Vicki Goldberg

Trade Cloth

Publisher: Five Ties Publishing

The first book in a decade by former LIFE and Magnum photographer Burk Uzzle, A Family Named Spot gathers 77 images taken largely on Uzzle's frequent travels through his native South. Marvels of light and composition in the best tradition of black-and-white photography, these photographs confirm Uzzle's reputation as one of the wittiest and most incisive observers of American life. "Like Twain, Uzzle observes the conventional life...with witty irreverence and a particularly Southern sense of the preposterous." — Martha Chahroudi
