Armchair pilgrim

Who doesn’t love a good picture book?

Especially one with some real weight to it. Annie Leibovitz’s new tome Pilgrimage follows the photographer across one continent and part of another. In it, she’s just a woman with a camera (and an assistant) photographing places and objects that tell a story of influential writers, big-thinkers and hip-shakers like Virginia Woolf, Charles Darwin, and Elvis Presley. It’s perfect coffee table material. So you can go on a pilgrimage of your own, without the legwork. —Kelsey Dundon
