Book reccomendations...

After buying everything i need for college it turns out ive got around 30-40 quid left to get myself something else (Borders vouchers so books it is!)

I was looking at books by William Eggleston and Sebastio Selgado who are two ive taken a real interest in recently, but the ones i want (read, can afford) are out of stock.
Does anyone have any suggestions of similar photographers?

American Surfaces by Stephen Shore would be of similar style and era to Eggleston.

Sebastio Selgado, he did the portraits of displaced children right? If so, loooooove that book. Reading one at the minute called "Dialogue with Photography" by Paul Hill and Thomas Cooper. It's a book of interviews they did in the late 70's I think it was, with people like Man Ray, Bresson, Eugene Smith etc, very interesting read.

I've found these interesting;

"Magnum - Magnum"

"The family of Man"

A huge portion of his work revolves around migrant workers, and refugees so you might be right.
Some of his images are astounding.

I ended up not buying anything yet, i have a few out of the list posted above, and there are a few i want in there too.
But i think this time ill hold off for the ones that are out of stock.
