The 1971 self-titled monograph Wynn Bullock, published by the legendary Scrimshaw Press as Publication No. 8, was the first major retrospective monograph dedicated to the influential American photographer. The book is a highly collectible, beautifully printed volume that showcases Bullock's philosophical approach to photography, blending deep-focus nature imagery, nudes in landscapes, and light abstractions.

It features a biographical and analytical text written by his daughter, Barbara Bullock, alongside personal technical and philosophical notes by Wynn Bullock himself. It also includes acknowledgments by Scrimshaw co-founder Dave Bohn.

The book serves as a definitive look at Bullock's work spanning from the 1940s through 1970. It includes exceptionally high-quality reproductions of his finest full-page black-and-white images. Notable masterpieces included in this specific volume are Light (1939), Child on Forest Road (1958), Erosion (1959), and Stark Tree (1956).
