From the "Albuquerque Journal" "Bruder's 352 pages are jammed with a scrapbook-style explosion of color photos (many by the author), quirky typography and layout, and a freewheeling but comprehensive narrative.", From theLos Angeles Times:"Of all the books, films and YouTube videos that have attempted to interpret Burning Man for the "default" world, Bruder's project is among the few that allows you to plant yourself at the scene and wallow in it, with your faculties and filters unclouded by an author's personal agenda.Bruder writes little about herself inBurning Book, although her personal website reveals her as a frequent playa visitor who has done time in Paris and New York (she was once a staff writer for theNew York Observer). But instead of venting all her wild times in her book, she does something monumental: She reports the story.That doesn't meanBurning Bookis dry; not at all. Bruder crafts quietly poetic accounts of "the area known to its inhabitants as BlackRock City...[this] place that writer Stephen Black once called, with admirable precision, an 'Ephemeropolis.' " She writes accessibly enough that readers who have never even heard of the festival can live vicariously in these pages; she writes with enough authority that die-hard "Burners" will feel fairly represented by her claims.With the help of 38 photographers, she digs deep into Burning Man's history.

Synopsis
It all began in 1986 when a pair of friends burned an eight-foot-tall effigy on Baker Beach in San Francisco in front of an impromptu audience of twenty. Two decades later Burning Man has evolved intoa dazzling annual extravaganza dedicated to radical self-reliance and radical self-expression, attracting nearly forty thousand people. These revelers -- an eclectic mix of punks, geeks, families, ravers, grad students, gearheads, hippies, and tourists -- turn the ancient lakebed of Nevada's Black Rock Desert into a bustling city that exists for one glorious week before disappearing in a cloud of ashes and dust. Burning Bookis both a loving commemoration of the event's storied history and an enlightening companion for festivalgoers. Bruder explores the unique ethos and breathtaking art installations that have shaped the event, along with Black Rock City's distinctive landmarks, pranks, lore, and gift-based economy. Illustrated with more than three hundred stunning photographs,Burning Bookis a striking tribute to an extraordinary cultural phenomenon for the legions who participate in Burning Man every year, and for those who haven't become part of this unforgettable celebration -- yet., It all began in 1986 when a pair of friends burned an eight-foot-tall effigy on Baker Beach in San Francisco in front of an impromptu audience of twenty.

The book looks barley used if at all. Great value. The only issue I have is the cheap plastic bag that was used to ship the book in. It provides no protection whatsoever during shipping.
