I've a birthday coming up and I would like one of two books. The first one is:

Photography: The Definitive Visual History - Tom Ang

Masters of Photography - Reuel Golden

Can you tell me which would be the better one. Each book is suppossed to tell you all the photographic greats from Fox Talbot to today. If not please can you recommend a book for my expertease that would teach me about the history of photography without being too boring, and the greats like Ansel Adams, David Bailey, Francis frith etc?
