Reader Reviews
This review is from: Sanctuary: The Temples of Angkor (Hardcover)
I am a big fan of Steve McCurry. I have his book South Southeast, which is superb. The photographs here focus a lot on the place and not as much on the people. McCurry excels with people. The photos are small compared with South Southeast and the reproduction of the images is lackluster. I was really disappointed. Still, you get a good sense of the temples of Angor.
