Author and award-winning photographer W.D. Mast writes and sends postcards to memorialize the trails he travels, the world he journals and the images he captures. Mast is a dreamer, restless by nature, and a wanderer at heart. He has traveled the globe many times while discovering its unique places and people. Mast has found the visual symbolism from postcards to be a perfect way to communicate and connect with his loved ones. He enjoys affixing a note and stamp on each postcard and then sending the message and picture from one place to another. Postcards Home, Adventures Begin with the First Step represents the central focus of Mast's dream. Postcards he once sent now return to forever validate a place and point in time. Those who received the hundreds of postcards Mast has sent over the past 30 years, unbeknownst to him, kept many of those cards. Now over 410 of those same cards have been returned to the author/photographer/traveler. This book is meant to share with the reader Mast's true experiences through the postcards he has written and sent, through his photographs taken contemporaneously along the way. From the 1979 Iranian evacuation to living on a Saudi Arabian oil slick to catching live turkeys for a New Zealand/American Thanksgiving to spiritual awakening in Tibet, Postcards Home is an exciting, humorous, compelling and interesting read for all who share the adventurous spirit. Mast has earned the title of one of the most traveled photographers with his long list of adventures, including skiing off the Swiss Alps and parasailing 7000 feet to the village below; bungee jumping off a 120-foot bridge in Queenstown, New Zealand; being chased from a Kenyan tent camp by a charging elephant; finding himself confronted, eye to eye, with a white rhino and her young calf while on a Zambian walking safari; taking the longest train journey -- 9300 miles -- from London to Hong Kong in 43 days; traveling by train across Canada and the USA over 10,000 miles; and, camping in a 4x4 vehicle for four months through 32 national parks and covering 25,000 miles across North America. The spectacular worldwide photography of W.D. Mast has always made places both remote and familiar come alive. Now, his creative book, Postcards Home, with ever entertaining stories to go along with the photos gives you an even more 'being there' feeling. Mast's nostalgic collection of postcards reminds us all of trips we took but didn't have the foresight to save the postcards! This book helps bring our own travel memories to the forefront out of the corners of our mind ... as it instills us with the desire to travel to new fantastic places as well. Experience a classic travel memoir by reading Postcards Home by W.D. Mast. Mast also makes available his U.S. and international photography gallery containing over 300 exquisite images at http://www.WDMast.com and http://MastPhotography.tcpic.com.
