I saw this book for the first time on a clearance rack. I picked it up and must have spent 20-30 minutes in complete awe. I didn't have my wallet so I left without buying it and came back the next day. Gone. I spent the next 2 years looking for it (couldn't remember the name). 30 book stores. Countless hours online searching. Finally found it at Hennessy and Ingells in Santa Monica. Worth every minute.It really might be the most incredible photographic odyssey I've ever seen. It's just an absolutely brilliant piece of art. Hard to imagine how spectacular it is without seeing it. Stunning. Simply stunning.
