"The First Edition reproduces both the look and feel of the original, hand-made journal, which was created with transfer prints, found materials, handwriting, and bound in the remains of an abandoned vehicle. The First Edition includes all original elements, including strap closure. All prints were carefully matched, every inch of every page has been reproduced."--From http://www.ethanrafal.com/firstedition/, viewed 1/19/2016.
Summary
"A twelve-year, autobiographical project examining the relationship between protracted war and homeland decay, Shock and Awe is a meticulously crafted image, text, and found object journal that blurs the line between author and subject, and personal and authoritative histories. Completed over countless years traveling the United States, the project pulls from the traditions of documentary photography and writing set on the American road."--From http://www.ethanrafal.com/shock-and-awe/, viewed 1/19/2016.
