Softcover. Royal quarto. Pp. 63. Pictorial stiff wrappers. In mint condition. ~ FIRST EDITION. Autograph Copy, signed by the artist. With an invitation for a private view, depicting the image "Anti-tank Ditches, Pre-ranged Artillery Target Area, 1992" loosely inserted. Includes the essay "Territory and Topography: The Political Landscapes of Avi Holtzman's The War Trilogy" by David Green. Holtzman's spectacular landscapes open the publication with 6 pages of colour photographs. The essay, on pages 42-43, brings additional 3 photographs in black & white. As the work of some of the New Topographic photographers in America of the 70s, Holtzman's uninflected long look at the Israeli landscape tends to neutralize the mythic and high romantic connotations of "the holy land", forcing the viewer to confront the insidious power of politics over nature and history over beauty. It is a powerful, general condemnation of the war's consequences - the complete militarization of the land. Holtzman's camera, charting the geography of destruction, has captured a painful insight into how the very land itself has become a victim of war. The 53 photographs of "The War Trilogy" consist the most in-depth single artist representation in the Altered Landscape Collection, a premier repository for contemporary photographs on the environment. "We place Holtzman's work next to that of other photographers in the collection - the 'Bravo 20' photographs by [Richard] Misrach, the 'Nuclear Landscapes' of Peter Goin, and Lewis Baltz's deadpan coverage of the rural West's transformation into rootless suburbia - and it's clear that we need the view through all these different frames in order to understand where we live." - William L. Fox. --.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Briefer Version. pp. xxv, 227. A condensed version of the two-volume 1904 first edition. "The Standard Oil Company was the first major industrial monopoly in the United States. But clouding this success was one important failure. John D. Rockefeller's great wealth and power did not protect him from defeat at the hands of the magazine journalist Ida Minerva tarbell. The forceful muckraker historian of the Standard Oil Company did more than single out Rockefeller as the architect and the driving force behind the trust. She offered the oil man as the symbol and the cause of all that she felt was wrong in the national life." - Introduction. Average wear. Binding intact. Moderate quantity of yellow high-lighting to contents. A sound copy of this fascinating history.
