Berkeley: University of California Press, 1999. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/Fine. When writer Gray Brechin and photographer Robert Dawson received the 1992 Dorothea Lange-Paul Taylor Prize from Duke University's Center for Documentary Studies, they began a five-year project of driving and flying around California to record the present state of its environment. This book is the result of that collaboration. In six thematic chapters dealing with Loss, Mining, Farming, Cities, Energy, and Health, the authors provide a sobering look at California's environment. Signed and dated in the year of publication by Brechin on the title page. Oblong quarto. Original burgundy cloth binding, with bronze titles. The contents are sagging just a touch, as usual; else fine in a fine dust jacket.
