Instead, the train went in the opposite direction to Jacksonville, Florida. Though he returned home a few days later, it sparked a desire to wander across the United States by any means that were free: walking, hitchhiking and train hopping. Despite having no formal training in photography, Brodie took a camera salvaged from behind a carseat and began to document his experiences on 35mm film. His portraits of fellow rail-riders have a soft, romantic warmth that belies Brodie’s earnestness. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eA Period of Juvenile Prosperity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Brodie’s first book, now in its fifth edition, was named one of the best photo books of 2013 by the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eGuardian\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eTelegraph\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eAmerican Photo Magazine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICA Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60054836117888,"sku":null,"price":67.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/4390\/6109\/files\/61fxWsGmu7L._SY466.jpg?v=1791294215","url":"https:\/\/shop.ica.art\/products\/nigel-poor-the-san-quentin-project-copy","provider":"ICA Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
