| Publisher Description: "A graphic look at America's most exciting and captivating notion--The West. " "West" is a creative look at the romance and design of the American West. It captures the true spirit of America--and its forces of nature. It embraces the notion that the republic should not be thought of as the center of the world but rather as the drifter that still tries to get away. Lars Strandberg has worked internationally as a photographer, his work appearing both in books, magazines, newspapers, exhibitions, and advertising. Lars Aberg is a journalist and the author of a number of non-fiction books with Swedish or American themes, including two about Native Americans. Ronnie Nilsson is an art director who runs his own graphic design firm out of a renovated old farmhouse on the south coast of Sweden. He has designed a series of books, one of which was named Swedish cookbook of the year. |
