Description

This is the sixth book we’ve created with William Wegman, but the first we’ve designed for all ages (the other books were primarily for kids). Beginning with Wegman’s first weimaraner puppy, Man Ray, the book traces the personalities and adventures of several generations of weimaraners, revealing the relationships they have with each other, with Wegman, and with his ubiquitous camera.
