In Search of Small-Town America
The ’50-50 Project’ began in Albuquerque, New Mexico – Long before Donald Trump blinged-up the Oval Office, and dropped bombs on Iran. A three hundred and fifty day extended Road-trip – covering over thirty-two thousand road miles, and a fair few thousand in the air, visiting all fifty American States – in as many weeks.
Published in seventeen volumes – available as pdf downloads, and in a new ‘duplex’ format – the work is a collection of around 4,000 photographs and over 370,000 words, exploring the many differing processes affecting the deterioration of much of Small town America.
It is in no way intended as an authoritative work, or as a comprehensive travelogue, and although focused primarily on small-town culture, it is very much a random and personal view: A variety of incidental observations; societal, media and political comment, and carefully considered insight.
Often related with caustically casual humour, and with a sprinkling of expletives thrown-in, it's an occasionally flippant, but always informed view of an iconic part of the wide American landscape – looking back with fondness, to much simpler times.
An ‘Historical record’ of how things were in North America, at the start of the twenty-first century.
