>>Really-From: graham@ug.cs.dal.ca (Michael Graham)
If Michael's information is correct it may be a revised edition. My second reprint edition has only black and white photos and only 160 pages. > Later, Homeground reported that the book was involved in all sorts of > complicated legal proceedings involving the author, the publisher, and > I think a magazine. I think part of the problem with this book is that the author gathered most of his information from magazine articles and such. Of course being fans we know how silly some of the stuff they print in magazines is but Juby seems to take it all as gospel. > Homeground describes the history of this book, and the interesting thing > is that originally, the Visual Documentary people and Juby were > collaborating to make one book. They had a falling-out, with the result > that the two separate books were published at almost the same time. > Despite what is implied in the jacket, Juby's book did NOT have > authorization from the Bush family. I recommend the Visual Documentary over the Juby book. It's got errors of its own but they're fewer and less serious. It's got less text but nicer photographs. "Don't drive too slowly."
