Photographe, collectionneur, artiste et écrivain, Peter Beard a fait de sa vie une véritable uvre d art : les journaux intimes de ses collages et souvenirs de jeunesse se sont mués en une carrière artistique à la dimension internationale.

Son reportage au Kenya en 1970 sur les éléphants de Tsavo qu il voyait mourir de faim par dizaines de milliers, permit de porter l attention publique sur les dangers de l activité humaine sur la faune et la flore africaines. Tirées du célèbre Collector qui fut sold-out dès sa parution, contemplez plus de 700 pages des collages, journaux intimes, photos et écrits de Peter Beard dans cette édition grand-format à petit prix.

The age of the metrosexual is over. Dead and buried. In places as diverse as Seattle, Los Angeles, Austin, Richmond, Miami, and Charleston, modern American men are ushering in a new golden age of hirsute pursuits. Denouncing the baby-smooth standard that society has set, men from around the world are reembracing their face in its most natural state. A select group of these well-whiskered men and their faithful Whiskerinas have taken this dedication a step further through the formation of their very own competitive community. Backed by the jackpot of good genetics and a well-oiled care routine, this group of grooming enthusiasts competes all over the world in hopes of recognition in the art of pogonotrophy. Step inside this whimsical, wild, and often-misunderstood world of competitive bearding through the lens of David Sacks. Comb through his collection of over 200 portraits and see for yourself how beautifully weird the beard can be.

They were almost The Pendletones--after the Pendleton wool shirts favored on chilly nights at the beach--then The Surfers, before being named The Beach Boys. But what separated them from every other teenage garage band with no musical training? They had raw talent, persistence and a wellspring of creativity that launched them on a legendary career now in its sixth decade. Following the musical vision of Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys blended ethereal vocal harmonies, searing electric guitars and lush arrangements into one of the most distinctive sounds in the history of popular music. Drawing on original interviews and newly uncovered documents, this book untangles the band's convoluted early history and tells the story of how five boys from California formed America's greatest rock 'n' roll band.
