Going With The Wind: Carolina In My Mind (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780970827999)

In 1969, a young New Yorker named Joe Randazzo moved from the big city to the little town of Shelby, NC and was amazed at the confluence of old and new living side by side. Realizing that the Carolinas were at a crossroad, Randazzo decided to capture the profound changes that were about to occur. He visited tent revivals, KKK rallies, cotton mills, deer drives and backwoods stills, always accompanied by his trusty Konica SLR, and planned to make his photos into a book. Then he lost the thousands of negatives, 5 years of work. Cleaning out the cellar 35 years later, Randazzo stumbled upon a carton filled with the long-lost negative files. You'll see over 200 of the best in this superb collection. The Carolinas today have changed beyond recognition. We can only be grateful that "Going With the Wind" exists to document a unique culture that will never be seen again.
