A review from the Book Exchange aboutAmerica - a guide to the experience======================================"The book gives an up to date impression of America often with an emphasis on the slightly off-beat. All aspects of American life are covered, from cowboy country to the burial of the unknown soldier from Vietnam in Washington, from Dallas to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, Mexico Way and Mardi Gras have attention as do the surfing beaches and Daytona speedway.The reader will discover just how diverse the USA is and the book paints a vivid picture of the 'real' America unlike many other travel guides.David Stuart Ryan travelled over 10,000 miles researching this book during three extended tours of America. He is one of America's prize winning poets.The photographs in the book are truly impressive and each is an original that has never before been published. Altogether a most enjoyable book and one which it will be a pleasure to re-read.'============================================="The two page spreads are well composed, the lighting is good and the pictures interesting."Photographic Society of America Journal============================================
