Prints 130 tri-toned black-and-white images scanned from negatives in the collection of the Library of Congress. Jones's book is the first to deal exclusively with the 35mm negatives that FSA director Roy Stryker killed with a hole punch during the early years of the project (1935-39). The book brings to light destroyed or defaced photographs by Walker Evans, Ben Shahn, John Vachon, and others; it also includes two essays by Jones discussing the images and possible reasons for their suppression.
Warning : Graphic sex is shown in this book. It was well written by. William Jones.

The life, times, and mysteries of Fred Halsted, gay porn's first film auteur. I always find the "taboo" so fascinating, even thought there's that taboo in all of our lives whether or not we admit it.
