Description: Up for sale is a brand-new copy of "Mothers ['and] Sons; In Their Own Words" photographed by Mariana Cook of famed and not-so-famous mothers and their sons in stunning black and white photographs. In some cases, the mothers are the famous ones, in others, it is the sons, and in some, neither is famous but all are accomplished in some way or another (including the President of the Navajo Nation) and former president Bill Clinton. Published by Chronicle Books in the USA. The foreword is by Isabel Allende. The front cover features Steven Spielberg and his mother. The book is a sensitive chronicle of mothers, some very accomplished artists and writers, diplomats and business giants as well as weavers and window washers, and some with less-accomplished sons as well as actors, directors, writers, diplomats, etc. It is a coffee-table sized book (and has been sitting on one since I purchased it NEW in 1996. It is in pristine condition, read only once. Shipping weight is about 2 pounds. Shipping within the US will be by Media mail; mail to foreign addresses will be by USPS International Air Mail.
