Not only have they helped shape the country’s sprawling cities and suburban society, but they’ve inspired films (from American Graffiti to The Fast and the Furious) and songs ( from the Beach Boys’ zippy Fun, Fun, Fun to Bruce Springsteen’s anthemic Thunder Road ) and an endless parade of road-trip books. Over the course of half a century, Clark Winter captured images of the car as a symbol of Americana, yes, but more intriguingly, he also found a global spirit in this form of transportation in countries such as Spain, Italy and China.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Winter’s photographs, made in both color and black-and white, are not simply focused on the vehicles but rather on the way people physically relate to cars, turning each image into a stage upon which a drama quietly (and sometimes comically) unfolds between owner, passenger, and passerby. And because these dramas are universal—eating ice cream in the backseat, waiting for a pump at the gas station, stuck in traffic, busted for speeding—Winter’s wide-eyed, often lighthearted pictures invite us to recall and relive our own days of adventure, romance and speed.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51202019787025,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51202020868369,"sku":"NGR9788862088398","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52519271170321,"sku":"NIN9788862088398","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":53042183143697,"sku":"CIN8862088396LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":54112102744337,"sku":"CIN8862088396A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/8862088396.jpg?v=1786105614"},{"product_id":"either-or-investor-book-clark-winter-9781400065929","title":"The Either\/Or Investor","description":"People today are inundated with advice, opinions, and information about how to invest. The more data you accumulate, the thinking goes, the better decisions you'll make. In The Either\/Or Investor, global investment strategist Clark Winter shows that the opposite is the case, introducing a revelatory way of thinking about the markets based on finding and assessing just enough of the right information and using your common sense. According to Winter, investing comes down to making choices. All great investors employ an either\/or filter for evaluating and simplifying the many investment opportunities available to them. The Either\/Or Investor reveals how you can emulate this thought process while remaining realistic about your own goals and needs, and gives you the tools to choose among the options that modern investors face, such as: -- Fear versus greed: In an anxious post-9\/11 world, discover when it's smart to make an aggressive financial move. -- Developed world versus developing world: Find out if you should stick with opportunities in the United States or risk those available in the emerging economies of China, Russia, India, Mexico, and Turkey. -- Anti-immigration versus migration of talent: Learn to evaluate the products that immigrants introduce to the rest of the world in order to assess the value in investing in American companies that cater to new immigrant groups. -- Too much information versus too little information: Use the Internet, newspapers, and TV to your advantage. (For example, get the pros and cons about China's growing economic power so you can become informed enough to act.) -- Rising interest rates versus falling interest rates: Understand how changing interestrates are a good barometer for how to spend your money.

In the eighteenth and nine- teenth centuries, explorers wandered the planet in search of the unknown, sometimes traveling for years with little commu- nication and guidance. Charles Darwin and his predecessors and contemporaries enjoyed a self-assured sense of purpose, though their actual knowledge during such journeys was often limited. When they returned home with specimens of hitherto unknown species of flora and fauna, all were astounded by such visual extravagance. Of birds in particular, their shapes, intricate color patterns and feathers were overwhelming--alternatively described as divinely inspired or the result of evolution and the battle for survival: a debate that continues to this day. With its intricate hand-colored illustrations, Birds is a testament to this lost sense of awe, one difficult yet not impossible to access in today's connected world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51629494960401,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51629495124241,"sku":"NGR9783969993583","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53657388024081,"sku":"NIN9783969993583","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/396999358X.jpg?v=1786100201"},{"product_id":"robert-frank-in-conversation-with-clark-winter-10-films-dvd-9783969993774","title":"Robert Frank in Conversation with Clark Winter","description":"Throughout the decades of friendship between Robert Frank and Clark Winter, Winter often had a video camera at hand, ready to capture spontaneous exchanges with the legendary photographer and filmmaker. Robert Frank in Conversation with Clark Winter contains a selection of ten of these revealing encounters, now released in their entirety for the first time. From the everyday charm of Frank and Winter walking through the landscape of snow and ice around Frank's Mabou cottage, to car trips where he recalls his experiences making The Americans, to behind-the-scene footage of Frank's 1987 film Candy Mountain, this collection of intimate conversations presents yet unknown facets of Robert Frank, both as an individual and artist.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51631640543505,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51631640805649,"sku":"NGR9783969993774","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3969993776.jpg?v=1786442061"},{"product_id":"free-air-book-clark-winter-9783969993507","title":"Free Air","description":"Since 1973 Robert Frank's Bleecker Street studio and home was the crucible of his creativity. Yet just as important (and for even longer) was the weather-beaten fisherman's cottage he bought in 1969 with his wife, artist June Leaf, in Mabou, Nova Scotia. Here they spent much of the year for the following half-century: working, reflecting and quietly integrating with the local community. Frank the photographer is revered for his eyes' ability to explore and record the world with unprecedented understanding, compassion and empathy. Less known is the remarkable work he made with his hands--in many ways Frank was a sculptor using found objects, old photographs and the camera as just some of his tools. In the first part of this book, \"Land,\" Clark Winter captures the energy of the Cape Breton landscape and documents Frank's hands as they consider possibilities: contemplating a contact sheet, magnifying glass in hand, warmed by the wood-fired cast-iron stove. All around are talismans and mementos: faded postcards, trinkets and bric-a-brac, a photo of a younger Leaf and Frank laughing at us from a joyful day. The second series \"Tables\" shows found objects dancing and mingling on tabletops. Finally, \"Boxes\" takes us to the boxes containing Frank's photographs and films at Bleecker Street. The worn containers sit upon one another like layered memories, Frank's handwritten labels the only clue to the contents within: \"Family,\" \"Circus,\" \"Japan,\" \"Peru.\" Seen together, Winter's photographs reveal yet unknown facets of a creative mind ever fearlessly at work.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51631776170257,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51631776530705,"sku":"NGR9783969993507","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53602481963281,"sku":"NIN9783969993507","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3969993504.jpg?v=1785976572"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-clark-winter.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
