Retrospective collection of the photographer's work. Published in a small and limited print run as a paperback original only. An elegant production by Dennis Stock: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial softcovers, as issued. Photographs and text by Dennis Stock. Without DJ, as issued. Presents some of the finest and most representative images by the immensely talented American photographer. As the title suggests, Dennis Stock shows scenes from American life that capture a nation in rapid transition, living simultaneously in the past in the form of the present, which extends back to the past and alludes subtly to the future, especially the images of the Hippie Movement. One of the most famous photographs is here, that of the broodingly handsome James Dean, probably the best American example of someone who has lived in the past, the present and the future, walking by himself on a foggy Manhattan street. This stunning single photograph alone has been reproduced so many times to evoke the enduring "lonely rebel" image of the iconic star, whose power to inspire awe among Americans has remained undiminished to this day.
