Seller's Description:
Richard Stack (Photographer) Good. This is one of the Harper Photographers series. Contains 76 black and white photographs of Marine Corps recruits at Parris Island, accompanied with four different types of text--Responses to a written questionnaire, Taped dialogue; Taped interview; and Quotations taken from the Marine Corps basic manual of instruction, a copy of which is given to every recruit entering Parris Island. It will probably be apparent that the material offered in the text was not necessarily gathered in conjunction with the shooting of any particular photograph, and there is no suggestion made that the individual or individuals shown in a given picture said or wrote what appears in the adjoining text. All quotes, however, were actually gathered by Richard Stack, and appear as they were recorded or taken off the questionnaires. Richard Stack, a native of Pennsylvania, served four years in the U.S. Marine Corps, including two years in Vietnam. Following his return to civilian life in 1967, he became active in photography, and in late 1971 returned to Parris Island, where he had received his Marine training, to shoot this book. From 1972 to 1974 he was a contract photographer, first for Life Magazine and later for Time Magazine, in Southeast Asia. Harper Photographers was an experimental publishing program designed to encourage photographers to direct their thinking and their skills toward book-length projects dealing with a single theme. All books are in black and white, and the subject matter is completely open, as re the length and character of any text materials that may be used. The photographer may work alone, or in special cases, with up to two other people. The primary goal of the program was to develop photography as the major element in original books, which must meet the same standards of creativity, style, cohesiveness of vision, and literary value as any other book.
