Lee Friedlander's "Street: The Human Clay". Honestly, these types of photos generally do nothing for me. Yet there are some real gems here. Even if you're usually bored by photos of anonymous people walking by on the sidewalk, this is worth a look.
Ernst Haas's "Color Correction". The newly published second edition. Lots of abstractions, reminiscent of Aaron Siskind but in color. Beautifully reproduced. One of my favorite recent books.
William Eggleston's "The Democratic Forest, Selected Works". I have the 1989 original "Democratic Forest" and this new edition from Steidl has much better reproductions. However, the new book doesn't contain all the photos from that original Doubleday publication (let alone the multi-volume recent edition). Still the quality of the printing makes this a must have for the Eggleston enthusiast.
Josef Koudelka's "Exiles". I'm trying to make up for a sadly under represented Koudelka section of my library. This is one of his classics.

"Fred Picker's Zone VI Workshop Book" - Yes! Mr. Picker's book was a grand guide - I also got his grey scale (sort of) stick-on for my Pentax spot meter, and life became much easier.

Yes I know another edition of Atget but this is small in size big in content, around 600 photographs, beautifully bound and printed by Taschen at a great price, I can loose myself in Paris over Christmas now.

what?
Sadly I buy books much faster than I read them.
The book on Ingres weighs more than I do. His treatments of surface textures are incredible.
Always loved Miro (since the cover of Brubeck's "Time Further Out" LP).
Modigliani is too cool. Hokusai is an education for me. Lautrec is fun.
