Thanks for this work that you have been doing.

Ordered from Amazon and here <60h later!</p>

A spectacular and good-sized book with amazing photos throughout. These images are all so well composed and capture the scenes in a way that is so very evocative and somehow brings a beauty to what is, after all, decay and ruin. This is a real "coffee table book" with a difference.

Perhaps one day a second volume...?

Hi Julie,
Thanks for your message!
I just learned from my publisher that the book won't be (at first) distributed in USA.
So there are 2 options:
- you can order it from amazon.co.uk here (it will be available as of next week): www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/2915807825?ie=UTF8&tag=forbiplace-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=2915807825

The other option is to order it via myself - it's a bit more expensive, I don't have the logistic facilities of Amazon, but you'll get a signed version! Payment can be done by Paypal.
Just let me know!

Julie

I am a big follower of you. How do I get this book in USA? It's not on amazon USA. They are fools!
