Description
"The Bridges of Madison County is a 1992 best-selling novel by Robert James Waller which tells the story of a married but lonely Italian woman, living in 1960s Madison County, Iowa, who engages in an affair with a National Geographic photographer from Bellingham, Washington who is visiting Madison County in order to create a photographic essay on the covered bridges in the area.
The novel is presented as a novelization of a true story, but it is in fact entirely fictional. However, the author has stated in an interview that there are strong similarities between the main character and himself.
The novel is one of the bestselling books of the 20th century, with 50 million copies sold worldwide."
Clint Eastwood starred in and directed the film version of the novel in 1995.
A musical based on the book played on Broadway for three months in early 2014.
My favorite Geographic photographer is William Albert Allard who photographed Tombstone cowboy Sid Wilson at 90 for his first photo book "Vanishing Breed" (1982), which documented the old American West.
I shot Wilson the last 18 months of his life.
Images of Sid at 100 and 101 are scattered throughout these galleries, as are his funeral.
Like Allard, I was born in Minnesota and graduated from the University of Minnesota.
Allard shoots only in color.
