Artist's book of documentary photographs. "For the past six years my daily routine as a newspaper photographer has brought me into contact with every type of civic, social and fraternal organization in the community. These groups hold meetings at the country club, recreation center or in private homes during which they sponsor luncheons with guest speakers, discuss civic projects and conduct routine business meetings. My presence at these meetings had a purpose: I was taking photographs for the newspaper." -- from Bill Owen's introduction.
