Publisher's Synopsis
Of the vast amount of media coverage surrounding Hurricane Katrina, the images photographer Mario Tama captured were simply among the best. But Coming Back is also singular and memorable for the next chapter, which Tama covered so thoroughly and sensitively. Through Tama's stunning colour photographs, Coming Back captures the hope and despair, joy and sorrow, faith and determination in the faces of those who lived, worked and came to help America's most vibrant city regain its heart song.
