Summary: Dan Eldon's journal is an amazing adventure.
Comment: I had the chance to see Dan Eldon's mother speak at UCLA last year and that just made the book seem all the more real. Amy was there too, and she was as beautiful in person as she was in Dan's photos. I have read several reviews which have criticized The journey is the destination, but what we all need to remember is that this book chronichles someone's life. It's art, not fiction. Either you closed the booking recieving some kind of knowledge or inspiration,or you just saw some neat pictures. Saying that Dan copied Peter Beard's work is stupid as well as ridiculous. Many photographers, and artists keep journals like Dan's. I am a photographer and before I saw Dan or Peter Beard's journals I was making collages out to my photographs. There are numerous photo journals like Dan's and Peter's, what makes them all different and special is that they were constructed by unique individuals.

Summary: beyond inspiration
Comment: beautiful, troubling, emmancipating
i can not count the number of times i have read these journals or how many friends i have passed them on to. Dan Eldon is wonderfully inspirational and timelessly passionate. His story and the records of his thoughts have passed through many lands in my backpack. They have been and are an encouragement and reminder of the difference one life can make and the challenge each of us have before us to make that differnce. But beyond the text this book is inspirational simply to look at. Own it. Read it. Share it.

Summary: Awesome read, beautiful art
Comment: Eldon's story of the war-torn Somolia is as much an artwork as it is an engaging story. This "book" is a reproduction of photojournalist Dan Eldon's journal from his travels in the most impoverished regions of Africa. Part insightful reading, part artistic work, this book should be on anyone's reading list who wants to know more about the world we don't see everyday, and it truly makes one think about all we have, and all Eldon lost...5 out of 5 starts easily!
