Then I realized there is something else going on in relation to Kyle's book. It is a wonderful book with.excellent photographs well thought out design and nicely made.But there is more to it than this. It has made people think. Made people speak out and not just solely in America.. In this day and age it is hard to get peoples interest. We are jaded. We don,t have the time. Let someone else do it for us. But Kyle has struck a nerve. The media knows it. It.s turning up everywhere. I hope Kyle sells a million copies. He has earned it just by peaking peoples interest in a worthwhile subject because of his photography. I say way to go Kyle. Jack Harrison McClary wrote: > I don't think it needs interpreting.
