Recenzii

"As a journalist who has written about Madison for thirty years now, I am often asked what it is about this city that makes it so special to so many people. There has never been a short answer—until now. Zane Williams' wonderful new book of photographs captures Madison in all its diversity and vitality and its quiet moments too. He takes us to the Farmers' Market and inside the Capitol and out on the Union Terrace, where for generations young people have sat and dreamed of one day making their mark on the world. Zane Williams has made his as an artist with a camera, and he has never been better than in this ode to his home town. I love this city and this book." (Doug Moe, daily columnist, The Capital Times)
 
“If you’re looking for a way to share some of the beauty and excitement with friends or Madison ex-patriots, the photo book Madison by talented Madison photographer Zane Williams is as good as it gets. . . . From The Overture Center to Vilas Park Zoo, from Halloween on State Street to football at Camp Randall, he gets it right. If you want a book that truly captures the soul of Madison, this is it.” (Gary Knowles, Dane County Lifestyles)
