Long Time Coming is derived from the 145,000 photographs taken between 1935 and 1943 in America by a team of photographers employed by the Farm Security Administration, including Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans. Despite the iconic images of poverty that are usually associated with the project, the agency’s mission went well beyond photographing dispossessed rural people. This book reproduces 410 rare and remarkable images made in cities and towns throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. These photographs, together with the text, present an unusual visual record of everyday America.
