Sea Stories Robert Adams

One of the preeminent chroniclers of the American West, over the past decade Robert Adams has turned his attention to the woods and shores near his home on the Oregon coast. "Sea Stories" is a sequence of three narratives that follow Adams and his wife, Kerstin, as they walk among alder and maple trees, along the beach to observe the annual migration of shorebirds, and back eastward through meadows and what remains of the inland forest. Featuring many previously unpublished photographs, this book describes the cycles of nature with a new naturalism.

Robert Adams (b. 1937) first came to prominence with his seminal book The New West (1974). The Place We Live, a major retrospective of his work organized by the Yale University Art Gallery, tours to venues across the U.S. and Europe through 2014.
