Book Description
Between 1936 and 1941 Walker Evans and James Agee collaborated on one of the most provocative books in American literature, Let Us Now Praise Famous Men (1941). While at work on this book, the two also conceived another less well-known but equally important book project entitled Many Are Called. This three-year photographic study of subway passengers made with a hidden camera was first published in 1966, with an introduction written by Agee in 1940. Long out of print, Many Are Called is now being reissued with a new foreword and afterword and with exquisitely reproduced images from newly prepared digital scans.
Many Are Called came to fruition at a slow pace. In 1938, Walker Evans began surreptitiously photographing people on the New York City subway. With his camera hidden in his coat—the lens peeking through a buttonhole—he captured the faces of riders hurtling through the dark tunnels, wrapped in their own private thoughts. By 1940-41, Evans had made over six hundred photographs and had begun to edit the series. The book remained unpublished until 1966 when The Museum of Modern Art mounted an exhibition of Evans’s subway portraits.
This beautiful new edition—published in the centenary year of the NYC subway—is an essential book for all admirers of Evans’s unparalleled photographs, Agee’s elegant prose, and the great City of New York.

Many are Called by Walker Evans.......2007-08-14
I would love to review this book but can't since I haven't received in over 5 weeks time. No one knows where it is and my credit card has been charged sine the 14 of July. The book was supposed to have been shipped on July 20th and received by August 3rd and it is now Aug 14th. So much for Amazon's shipping quality!
Walker Evans at 101.......2005-01-09
"Stare. It is the way to educate your eye, and more. Stare, pry, listen, eavesdrop. Die knowing something. You are not here long." -- Walker Evans, c. 1960, from the afterword.
Thank God for Jeff L. Rosenheim, associate curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Due to his prodigious efforts, no less than five volumes of Walker Evans' best work -- much of it neglected, or previously unpublished -- have been published under Rosenheim's editorship in a little over a decade. The most notable of these have been: A thorough omnibus of Evans's photographs, with essays by current critics and scholars published by the Metropolitan; a collection of Evans' writings, translations and correspondence, and; a collection of Evans' Polaroid photographs, which he produced in the early 1970s, shortly before his death in 1975.
"Many Are Called" is the first book Rosenheim edited that is a reissue of a previously released book. Originally released in 1966, this collection of 89 photographs taken by Evans in New York City's subways between 1938 and 1941 marks the return of this seminal work in its entirety after many decades out of print.
Along with James Agee's original introduction is a newly written preface by Luc Sante, which basically says in more updated and professorial language what Agee said. Rosenheim penned an afterword for this new edition, which relates the history of this work's genesis and its quarter-century dormancy before its first publication in 1966.
New plates have been engraved from scans made from Walker Evans' original negatives. They are attractively printed in duotone. Although the printing is considerably better in tonality than the original, halftone screening and slight pixilization resultant from digital scanning is evident to the careful eye.
Many readers will already be familiar with many of the plates herein, published in previous collections such as the one cited above and also prominently featured in Gilles Mora's "Walker Evans: The Hungry Eye."
Upon first seeing these photographs, I was struck by how these were a departure from Evans' earlier work, most notably his "American Photographs." Because of its surreptitious nature (Evans kept a Contax folding camera hidden in his overcoat), the look of his subway portraits is stripped down to its bare elements: Slightly out of focus, grainy because it was in 35mm rather than large format, and somewhat off-kilter framing (Evans never looked through a viewfinder, using a cable release hidden up his sleeve to trip the shutter). Many subway riders have been framed in a subtle halo of light, resulting from the naked incandescent bulbs in train stations refracting through the camera's lens, accidentally giving his subjects an angelic aura.
Yet, because of this anonymous shooting method, Evans was able to keep capture his subjects totally unawares. To Evans, this represented portraiture in its purest, unadulterated and totally ingenuous state. Because of their anonymity, his subjects have been unmasked, and are simply in transit between work and home, on their way to the movies, reading the paper in their hands (always a tabloid, never a gatefold -- fitting, for the tabloid was invented to accomodate the confines of the packed subway car). Some were caught staring up. (At toothpaste ads? At a pretty girl's lithe arm hanging from an overhead strap? Who knows?)
My favorite print is probably the most famous, of a comely Jewish girl, magazine in hand, her head topped by a hat's wide, round, brim, her shoulders elegantly wrapped in a voluminous fur.
Others, though, are more comical, iconic or ironic: Plate 5 shows an older gentleman, grimacing, his eye's closed; a pair of old ladies gab in profile (plate 27); a blue collar guy gets caught up, ethusiastically reading his Daily Mirror (31); a prim and properly dressed elderly woman finds something on the train quite un-prim and improper to laugh out loud at (34); a man yawns, his mouth wide open (44); a pin-up girl on the Chesterfield cigarette placard slyly peers over a sailor's shoulder, betraying him as more lonely than alone (83); an accordion player ambles between the rows of passengers, singing his song, his eyes closed and oblivious to the passengers' aloofness (89).
In 2002, the great landscape photographer Ansel Adams had his birthday celebrated from beyond his grave by all sorts of his hangers-on, the usual crowds from the Sierra Club, the Yosemite workshops and PBS. It was a fitting tribute, a larger-than-life gushing forth of accolades and genuflection that would have pleased the professional publicity seeking cameraman.
The next year, however, marked the centenary of another great photographer, Walker Evans. Yet, there was little fanfare. This was also quite fitting, in its own way. Nonetheless, this quiet and fastidious man has probably had an influence greater than any other on the photography of the past 50 years.
In contrast to the bigger-than-a-breadbox boxed edition of "Ansel Adams at 100," there was no "Walker Evans at 100" released in 2003. However, this belated volume is a most fitting volume to the greatest photographic collector of prosaic American ephemera. In 89 plates, Evans created a revolution in documentary photography. Seeking not to convince, interpret, preach or incite. Rather, he achieves that rarest and most precious of photographic aspirations: He permits the world to simply see the world as he has seen it through his own eyes.
There's nothing necessarily novel about that in itself. Yet, what makes this work so singular and powerful is that we not only see through Evans' eyes, we like what we see, are moved by it and what we've seen is indelibly imprinted within our minds' eyes.
Anybody can make such miracles of nature as Momument Valley, the Grand Tetons or Half-dome at Yosemite beautiful. Walker Evans, though, took the ordinary and common, and raised it to something unique and profound through his taste, imagination and artistic passion.

Customer Reviews:
Everything you never knew you wanted to know about alt rock!.......2001-11-17
This book is an incredibly informative and interesting source for the story behind modern and alternative rock music. Alan Cross does a fine job of delievering the lives, music, and impact of some of the last 4 decades' musicians. While some of what's in this book may be just intriguing trivia about your favorites well-known bands (i.e. Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, R.E.M.) a good deal of the chapters deal with some of the lesser known gods of alt rock. But that's the best part I think. I have found that I have been introduced to all lot of my new favorite bands through reading this book. The other chapters however did provide an interesting new look at some of my old favorites. Overall, this book was a thouroghly interesting read that gave great insight into a lot of rock's most important bands and expanded my horizons as well. The only downside I found was that Alan Cross' writting seems a little dumbed down sometimes, as if he's writting to a much younger audience. Aside from the fact that you're not reading Rolling Stone quality reporting, this book is quite essential to anyone who wants to know all about alternative music. Highly recommended.
Factually Brilliant!.......2000-02-03
Alan Cross' second book is a detailed (and loving) look at 25 alternative acts that influenced the shape of current modern rock. The artist profiles begin with The Velvet Underground and Iggy Pop & The Stooges and wind their way through the seventies (Bowie, Kraftwerk, The Ramones), the eighties (U2, Depeche Mode, The Cure) and end up in the nineties (with The Smashing Pumpkins). Along the way, Cross inundates readers with plenty of information, great "Fast Facts" and a timeline which connects it all together. Cross clearly knows this stuff inside out (it helps when you write and produce your own radio column for a Troronto alternative rock station) but a more personal voice (like the way Nelson George or Colin Larkin use in their writings) would have really brought this stuff home to first-time readers trying to get a handle on the music's scope and breadth. Readers may feel a little angry by the proofreading of the thing: a number of misspelled words appear, breaking the reader's "flow". But, for the sheer amount of information packed in its 206 pages, the book is a quick read that brings its topic into sharp focus. Its no-nonsense tone may be a little academic, but in the end, his observations win the day.

Not as "Boer"ing as you would think.......2006-08-31
Being that as far as I can tell this is one of the few books written on this subject. I found this book to be well written and very informative. It explores a part or irish history that most people know nothing about. It gives insight into revelutionary thinking prior to the build up to the rebelion of 1916. I only wish that the author would have spent more time detailing the activities of the irish brigade in the war. Although , He has written "MacBrides Brigade" wich I assume is a more complete study the subject.

Robert Kaplan warns of a "bifurcated world divided between societies like ours, producing goods and services that the rest of the world wants, and those mired in various forms of chaos." This is a familiar theme for previous Kaplan readers (Balkan Ghosts, The Ends of the Earth). For those unacquainted with Kaplan, however, The Coming Anarchy is a fine introduction to one of the most important voices on the future of society and international relations. Kaplan mixes the intense reportage of a travel writer with the sharp wisdom of a foreign-policy expert to deliver what he calls "an unrelenting record of uncomfortable truths, of the kind that many of us implicitly acknowledge but will not publicly accept." The Coming Anarchy is also a disturbing book: Kaplan's vision of the future is a bleak one, full of ethnic conflict as the world falls away from a cold war that at least provided a kind of stability in even the shakiest of countries. That's gone now, of course, and Kaplan's descriptions of life and politics in Sierra Leone, Russia, India, and elsewhere are keenly troubling. Much of the book--but not all of it--has already seen print, mainly on the pages of The Atlantic Monthly and The Wall Street Journal. It is brief in length but not in importance. --John J. Miller
Book Description
From the bestselling author of
Balkan Ghosts and
The Ends of the Earth comes a fascinating new book on the imminent global chaos that is as brilliant as it is necessary, as original as it is controversial.
The end of the Cold War has not ushered in the global peace and prosperity that many had anticipated. Environmental degradation is causing the rampant spread of famine and disease, and a rising number of nations are being torn by violent wars of fierce tribalism and trenchant regionalism. Our newest democracies, such as Russia and Venezuela, are bloody maelstroms of violence and crime, while America is beset with an alarmingly high number of apathetic citizens content to concern themselves with matters of entertainment and convenience. Bold, erudite, and profoundly important,
The Coming Anarchy is a compelling must-read by one of today's most penetrating writers and provocative minds.
"Analytically daring.... Informed by a rock-solid, unwavering realism and an utter absence of sentimentality.... Kaplan is a knowledgeable and forceful polemicist who mixes the attributes of journalist and visionary." —The New York Times
"Ambitiously eclectic.... [Kaplan] is one of America's most engaging writers on contemporary international affairs." —The New York Times Book Review
Customer Reviews:
Important but flawed.......2007-06-06
This book is an easy and important read, but its obvious flaws undermine its overarching - and, in many respects, valid - thesis. For example, Kaplan cites on serveral occassions the present hardening of America along racial lines as though it were a given, and while there is increasing friction between blacks and Latinos in this country, relations between blacks and whites are arguably the best they've ever been. His confident prediction, at one point, that Quebec will secede is becoming less likely every year, as Canadian immigration policy fills that province with third world immigrants who have no loyalty to Francophone culture and no desire to vote for secession. Such blatant misreadings of situations close to home lead the reader to question, perhaps unfairly, the reliability of his other interpretations.
Having said that, he is clearly correct in his main argument that we are entering a bifurcated world, and the pragmatic steps he offers to dealing with the situation are a welcome alternative to the endless, pie-in-the-sky calls from those on the left and the right to cure the third world of its ills immediately through foreign aid and foreign intervention, respectively.
Well written and engaging.......2007-05-03
Kaplan most reminds me of VS Naipaul by the scope of his travels, the depth of his experience, and his sometimes pessimistic view of human nature. In this and more recent articles in the Atlantic Monthly, Kaplan tends towards worst-case scenarios and disasters. Perhaps this is because of his circle of contacts, especially in the Pentagon, where the worst-case is a necessary part of planning.
However, he is not a policymaker or planner, and offers no suggestions for how to manage the problems of environmental degradation, state decline, ethnic strife, and other aspects of the coming anarchy. Thomas Barnett's The Pentagon's New Map is somewhat better in this regard.
Kaplan's work is solidly in the field of travel writing and journalism, filled with historical, literary, and personal anecdotes, and should be read as such. He argues that fiction and anecdotes often contain more truth than statistics and the "methodology" (his quotes) of social science. That may or may not be, but try turning a work of fiction or an anecdote into an actual policy.
The book is wonderful in the questions it raises and vivid in its descriptions, but it would be intellectual laziness to base one's understanding of future global challenges on it alone.
A good book...but not what I was expecting.......2007-03-29
The Coming Anarchy was an interesting book. In it, Mr. Kaplan presents some startling facts and asks some very provocative questions. However, this was not exactly what I expected it to be when I first saw it. In this book, Mr. Kaplan outlines some of the quarrels in Africa and demonstrates how the United States is on a dangerous road down that same path. He also does expose how, since the end of WWII, America has been trying to establish itself as a global military power - even if this creates more poverty, displacement and hatred among the people of the earth. But it still was not exactly what I thought it would be. I thought it be more on par with Gore Vidal and his brilliant works on the American Empire. But, unfortunately, it was not. Still a fine book, but not exactly what I wanted. In reality, I would give it three and a half stars, but that is not a possibility, so I give it three.
Anarchy Has Arrived.......2006-10-06
Robert D. Kaplan is a triple threat, not only is he an excellent writer, but a seasoned, canny traveler, and a man possessing the mind of the highest-level foreign policy think-tank specialist. Those gurus all shut up in basements in the Pentagon wargaming out scenarios haven't hitchhiked through the most dangerous corners of the globe on nothing more than rice cakes and cunning. In fact it is Kaplan that those gurus are reading in order to formulate policy. "The Coming Anarchy" is a good introduction to Kaplan, nine substantial essays that visit global poverty, crime, tribalism, the slide of American democracy, the relevance of Gibbon's "Decline and Fall" applied to the former USSR, and the dangers of long peaceful periods in a technological society.
Kaplan is a prescient writer, twenty years ahead of the curve. During the 1980s he was in Soviet-occupied Afghanistan, when most journalism was wrapped around Nicaragua and El Salvador. He proved the majority of African famines to be the artificial product of malicious governments in "Surrender or Starve," won the Pulitzer for the haunting "Balkan Ghosts," dissects America in "An Empire Wilderness," and has lately bundled his philosophy into a book entitled "Warrior Politics." In short, Robert D. Kaplan is an essential ingredient when cooking up your own world-view.
The Grumpy and Misinformed American.......2005-12-27
The first fifteen pages of Mr. Kaplan's book are nothing but unabashed nonsense. Mr. Kaplan takes on West Africa from behind his windscreen as he drives from seemingly every airport in West Africa to his luxury hotel in the safe and thank God air conditioned areas of the dark continent. Kaplan's comments on West Africa are laughable. Having lived in West Africa for a good part of my life, I have heard such similiar analysis and comments to Kaplan's on Africa and Africans from racist bigots who never bothered to get out of their car or learn the simplest greetings in an African language. "Oh my, the filth, regardez ca la crasse, comme meme..." From Mr. Kaplan's analysis, West Africa is going to hell, there is no stopping it. Sierra Leone is basically brushed off the face of the map and Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria are soon to follow. Mr. Kaplan knows this because he got caught in a few traffic jams in West Africa and all he could see were beggers, young ruffians, trash and some person urinating against a wall. Yeah, it is troublesome to see the conditions in many West African capitals, but really, to then assume that these peoples are bordering on anarchy and will rush to Europe and the USA to destroy what we have. Please. The other articles in the book look dated even a few years after Mr. Kaplan wrote them. Nice reading, but hard to overcome Mr. Kaplan's colonial mindset, especially in of all places West Africa, where the lingustic, artistic, and cultural wealth is simply overwhelming; a place that is part of the world's wealth of languages and with sincerely fantastic individuals. Yeah a few area boys or gangs are in the mix, mais alors?
