Phil Collins (geb. 1951): The Alamo and Beyond: A Collector's Journey, Gebunden

Klappentext

Here, for the first time in history, are the artefacts, relics, and documents that compose the Phil Collins collection available in a beautifully designed colour book shot-through with stunning photography and crisply rendered illustrations. Collins's prose takes the reader through the joys of being a collector as he lovingly describes what each piece in this impressive assemblage means to him. Photographer Ben Powell of Austin brought these items to vivid relief, and artist Gary Zaboly's masterful pen-and-ink drawings breath life into the items. Essays by Texas historians Bruce Winders, Don Frazier, and Stephen Hardin provide the historical background to the collection and help make this into a work of art that also serves handily as a serious research tool.
