New. 0375414681. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-150 pp. --Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened-"Eastman does not take pretty pictures of horses. And it's not just because, as critic/novelist William Gass observes in his brief but deep introduction, "These are quite ordinary horses. Riders rent their backs." A self-taught photographer whose work ranges widely (The Forgotten Forest; Ten Inner-City Churches), Eastman approaches these noble creatures with a startling lack of sentimentality, capturing them at odd angles, with the occasional quizzical look, twisted lip, or weary eye. Readers used to celebratory depictions of the horse down through the ages might at first balk, but after careful study the power and beauty of Eastman's images become evident. Shot in sepia tones that suggest a haze of dust, they are deeply honest renderings of the equine spirit and the horse's uniquely beautiful architecture. A fine addition to large photography and natural history collections, and any library serving horse people should consider strongly."-Barbara Hoffert, Library Journal-0375414681--with a bonus offer--; Folio-over 12"-15" tall.
