"For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to explore America, an ambition fuelled by the legion of TV shows that crossed the Atlantic in the 1960s. As a young and impressionable child, I devoured The Man from Uncle and The Fugitive, but it was the westerns, evoking a landscape utterly removed from the congested English suburbs surrounding me, that I loved most: Bonanza, The High Chaparral, The Virginian and, in particular, Casey Jones. I began a search for the America which lived in my imagination, the one generated during childhood, the one that had probably never existed at all.”– Mark Power"Over the past six years photographer Mark Power has travelled to and fro across the US to create a complex visual narrative of a country attempting to redefine itself. This new publication, Good Morning, America (Volume One) is the first in a series of five books by Power to be produced over the next five years as a result of this ongoing project. It represents a personal and timely exploration of both the American cultural and physical landscape, and the divergence of reality and myth."
