Dan Eldon (1970–1993)

if you don't know this story, there are a few other collections of the journals and some films made about Dan Eldon's life. Eldon was a prolific journal maker, cataloging and describing his adventuresome life in Africa and around the world. He drove through some of the most war-torn countries of Africa at the time, to carry a self-raised donation for refugees. After that, he tripped into a career as a photojournalist, documenting the famine and war in Somalia. In a strange turn of events, he was killed - stoned - by Somalis as he took photographs of the destruction and death of a particular attack. He died at 22-years-old, having lived more in that time than most anyone after a fill life. The book are selections from his seventeen artistic journals with text describing his life. This is an incredibly moving and quickening book.

Highly Recommended!!!!!
