Review: Having bought Jock's other 2 book's first, I felt I needed to buy this one. I sure Love this book more than his other 2. It's sheer class! Jock is in another league, compared to Sally Mann, & David Hamilton. Though I love there book's too, This is the best of it's kind available though! I hear that Jock is working on a new book, which is going to be quite differant to all his currant one's! Well, I can't wait!

Summary: the other side of Hamilton
Review: I am a big fan of Jock Sturges. I think he goes to great trouble to show these beautiful creatures in their most natural form. I love Hamiltons work, but unlike Hamiltons portraits, his girls do seem to have the weight of the world in their eyes. He must wait for this moment for it seems to be consistant in his work. Amazing photos of amazing creatures.

Summary: Sheer beauty - a look at life
Review: I am a white, male, Christian, conservative, Republican grandfather that teaches Sex Education to students the same age as some of Mr. Sturges' friends. How wonderful it is that my students can now see what other normal people their own age actually look like, and that their own body is OK!. Usually, they only get to see what Madison Avenue thinks that they should look like. How sad that Jock is persecuted, while everyday we see the use of little bare babes to sell toilet paper, skin lotion or fashionable pants. I love the book. Thank you Jock, and thank you, Amazon, for carrying Jock's work.

Summary: Black and White
Review: I can be summed up in one word "Awesome". Jock knows how to bring out the beauty and innocence of the young. Many of the models have multiple photo of them at various stages in there life. His work has brought caused lot of controversy. Some people think his work in nothing more than child pornography. The only thing I can say to them is, go on vacation, take a trip to Europe. Go to Germany, France, Greece, just any were outside the US and see that most people do not have this sick obsession on the naked body. They do not have "nude beaches" They just go to the beach some with cloths some with out. Our country has the largest % of sex crimes in the world. Why, be cause at a early age we tell our children that it is a sin to be with out cloths, we make every aspect of our bodies sexual in nature. Wake up people, being naked has nothing to do with sex.

Summary: The Work of A Master
Review: I consider myself an expert in this are of photography. I have completely analylized both of Sturges' other books and this one tops them both. His use of light and his angle of photography is unbelievable. He captures his shots excellently. Very few photographers these days take the time to take the picture the exact way they had orginally planned it. I used enjoy the work of David Hamilton more than Mr. Sturges, but after reading this one I will defiinitly support Mr. Sturges with a greater passion. My "co-viewer" and I both agree that this is the best work of photography of its kind in a long time!!!

Summary: The best of the Sturges Books
Review: I found this to be the best of the Sturges books. Not only did it contain the most photos, it allowed the viewer to follow the progression of his models through the years. Having raised two daughters, it was like deja vu to see how Sturges' girls "grew up" in front of his lenses. I only wish my two girls could have posed for him.

Summary: I enjoyed the simpleness of the pictures
Review: I happened upon the book this weekend while browsing the photography section of my local book store. I enjoyed the simpleness of the pictures and I hope some day Jock will create a similar book using families of color. I think this book would be a great book for children of color to learn to appreciate their bodies and not be ashamed of God's work.

Summary: An artist's dream comes to fruition.
Review: I have always known that Jock Sturges was a genius, but this book proves it. Finally, his work is presented the way he intended and it has all the power, beauty and passion that one should expect from a visual artist of his caliber. It is truly a celebration of youth, beauty and life!

Summary: The Best of it's kind!!!
Review: I have looked through the book several times and I feel that it is honestly and truly the best of its kind around. I do not see how anyone could be offended by the art work in the book. If people were more open minded in our country (the United States), they would realize the beauty of Jock Sturges' art work!!!
