Declaring Independence is the fourth in David Graham's trilogy of photographic books about the American cultural landscape. Unable to stop searching the country for the odd, unusual and colorful, Graham has continued on his quest to find out how Americans express themselves through their environments, whether they be roadside, backyard or even in the bathroom. The result of his latest journey is this book of photographs which delves further into the complex weave of image, symbol and reality that we see as America at its finest. From coast to coast, from dinosaurs to diners, Graham has put together an engaging and joyous collection of photographs that show what it means to be an American.
