"Fifteen years ago, I photographed in the Texas Hill Country. As a young photographer and cinephile something about America called to me, it was like being able to fly into the movies. Everything became cinematic, everything seemed meaningful, like it was conveying some important narrative that I would never know.

"Fifteen years later the work still resonates. One of my talents as a photographer is creating photographs with a sense of timelessness, even in 2007 many of the photographs already looked like they were from another time. If you saw my last book In-A-Gadda-Da-England I think you’ll really love this one too. It’s going to be printed the same way and the same size. It will be the second in a series of books from my archive. They are going to sit very nicely on your bookshelf.” — Edward Thompson
