8 x 9", 93 pages. I find both Rigsbee's text & Burch-Brown's images perfectly fitted to the vision they embody of the idiosyncratic world of trailer environments. A sensitive portrayal of life in a regional mobile home sub-culture.

- 1st.
In an evocative blending of words and images, painter-photographer Carol Burch-Brown and poet David Rigsbee offer a depiction of trailers and their inhabitants. The understated imagery of Burch-Brown's 48 photos implies rather than proclaims the living conditions of these mobile-home dwellers, while Rigsbee's meditative, autobiographical essay parallels and illuminates the subjects and chronicles family histories with trailers.
