American Beauty features over 100 inspirational photographs that capture the American countryside and travel encounters of one of America's most beloved icons, Kenny Rogers. He brings his unique eye to the remote chapels, sweeping landscapes and the small towns which best represent America.Taken on the road, on breaks in his tour and on visits with friends, Rogers' photos expand on the theme of country - whether that be in waterfalls, streams, mountains, or churches. Rogers adds his voice to the photographic narrative in lyrics and musings on his trail. Usually known as an icon in the country music world, Kenny Rogers also shows creative talent as a photographer in this surprising selection of both colour and black and white images. Photography has been a passion for Rogers in addition to music. Rogers studied photography under Ansel Adams apprentice John Sexton and their influence is seen in Rogers' breathtaking landscapes.
