Book Description: San Francisco, CA: Chronicle Books. Hardcover. Book Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 285 pages. Published in 2001. Posthumous, fully illustrated biography on the late artist/photographer. The companion volume to his journal, "The Journey Is The Destination". The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Eldon's powerful photographs of the escalating war in Somalia were instrumental in bringing international attention to that troubled region, and he was on the brink of a major career as a photojournalist when, in 1993, at the age of 22, he was stoned to death by a Somali mob. The posthumous "The Journey Is the Destination", a compilation of his numerous journals, was one of the most acclaimed books of the last decade of the 20th century. The journal that is filled with original drawings, archival materials, photographs, and other visual elements seems to be the preferred medium of expression for young, male adventurer/artists, who venture Into The Wild, notably Africa. Eldon's youthful mastery of a fluid and vibrant collage style is unmistakably derived in part from Peter Beard (who started out by writing journals, too) , but is nevertheless charged with a fierce originality all its own. Jennifer New's biography includes an extensive selection from Eldon's seventeen volumes of journals, which fittingly dominate the text both visually and thematically. "Dan Eldon now enters the ring not only of great photographers, but also humanitarians such as Robert Capa, David Douglas Duncan, Larry Burrows, and James Nachtwey. It's Dan's brave new voice in his journals that gives us back the grand notion of remembering our own innocence and why it's important" (Bruce Weber) . A "cult" title that has become a "must-have" for Dan Eldon collectors. This title has been out-of-print as a hardcover for some time even though it went into multiple subsequent printings. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition (number line ending in 1) still available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A very scarce copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with excerpts from Dan Eldon's journals. One of the most brilliant artist/photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy.

Book Description: Chronicle Books, San Francisco, 2001. Hard Cover. First Edition. 4to. First printing. Paper covered boards with b/w photos are flawless; multi-colored dj with photo collage is unclipped and clean, and thus Fine/Fine. Literally hundreds of collages, from Eldon's remarkable journals, which he was creating nearly up to the day of his death. Eldon was stoned to death in a riot in 1992--at the age of only 22--as he tried to document the violence and famine in Somalia. New's biography is carefully detailed, as are appreciations by friends and his mother at the back of he book. Wrenching, moving, sometimes even funny, his collages stand as a testimony to his committment as a photographer, journalist, and artist. A very well-designed volume; dj protected in clear removable cover. Bookseller Inventory # 000691
