About the Item
Spectacular America Hardcover Book 1994
Large horizontal format - 16 x 12 inches featuring 180 color plates and accompanying text.
Spectacular America conveys all the grandeur of the country's most awe-inspiring sites.
A stirring portrait of our nation's scenic diversity, this magnificent volume unfurls the sweeping grandeur of the American landscape. More than 200 color photographs capture the country's regional variety - from the virgin timberlands of Alaska to the mangrove swamps of the Florida Everglades, from the bucolic hills of New England to the spectacular mountain bluffs of Big Sur, where the land meets the sun-drenched California surf. Featuring six foldouts opening to nearly four feet, the book's large horizontal format - 16 x 12 inches - delivers the immense scope of our native splendor. Extraordinary photographs by some of the most talented photographers working in America today include many produced in the new panorama format, as well as 360-degree views shot on an antique Cirkut camera.
On pages nearly the size of a TV screen, and in 36 pages of foldouts opening to nearly four feet in width, renowned photographers present America's most exquisite vistas in all their glorious depth and detail.

- Broadway Musical Martin Gottfried Large Hardcover BookLocated in North Hollywood, CABroadway Musical Martin Gottfried 1984 hardcover book.Large heavy book. A colorful tribute to the great Broadway shows of our time. Profusely illustrated in color. New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc. Title Broadway Musicals Author Gottfried, Martin Format/Binding Hardcover Binding Hardcover Publisher Harry N. Abrams Place Of Publication NY Date Published 1984 395 illustrations, 112 in full color. Great oversized heavy coffee table art book. A true treasure of a book. This is a very large book, and not just width wise. It is very tall too. There are many pictures, a lot of them in color. They have some of the rarest flops featured toward the back of the book, and the classics are all here too. Some high points are the run-through of how they make (made) "Annie" run every night. There is also a synopsis of "Hello Dolly" which helpful since I have only seen the movie. There is a flaw though, and it is not insignificant. The author does not separate fact from opinion. Example: "Sweeney Todd does not hold a place in the theater". This book came out the same year "Sweeney Todd" did(1979), so it might be just a bit early to say that. Obviously, he is a critic, but he should have took that hat off ,and taken on the role of an author who looks at the facts.("Sweeney" is just one of the hows that gets criticized.) Colorful entertaining masterpiece with many of these Broadway Musicals some of them are THE WIZ...Category
