Congratulations! That second edition, 1981, has very nice reproductions.
Should you feel the need for further books of his images, especially if you
can't see them in person beforehand, stick
with those published by Little, Brown & Co. There are quite a few books out
there from other publishers with mediocre to
poor reproductions of the images.
I've yet to see a bad one from Little, Brown, including the revelatory 'Ansel
Adams in Color'.
