  abstract: "This book offers a sweeping portrait of the nation through the critical lenses of iconic photographers such as Diane Arbus, Robert Frank, Nan Goldin, Andres Serrano, Andy Warhol and Carleton Watkins, capturing America in all its complexities -- its dreams, landscapes, and people. From the early daguerreotypes of frost flowers on a windowpane to the evocative works of Paul Strand, Charles Sheeler, Sally Mann, Dawoud Bey and Sarah Sense, American photography traces the evolution of the medium as an art form. It also illuminates photography's prescence in everyday life: family portraits, advertisements, postcards and even record covers reflect how the medium has become an intrinsic part of American culture. Exploring themes like the American dream and the shifting social landscape, this book reveals how photographers have chronicled, questioned and celebrated the nation's identity across generations."--Back cover.
