Isbell’s Book Colorfully Illustrates Past
Sunday, July 9th, 2006Mississippi Press columnist Reba McMellon reviews Sun Herald photographer Tim Isbell’s new book: “Vicksburg: Sentinels of Stone”…
Isbell’s photographs of statues and monuments in beautiful light make them come alive, perhaps more than if one were to see them in person. The photographs are accompanied by a text that explores the stories of the soldiers and citizens who participated in these devastating battles. These summaries serve to bring special meaning to the photographs. These sister books have flow that evokes both emotion and curiosity.
