Just got my hands on a copy today. Great stuff so far, the book is presented in interview format by Rebecca A Senf, Ph.D. It seems to be painting a slightly different picture of Brett than I have read before.

From whom is it available? I haven't found a listing for it on the usual sites.

I think you can find it at the MagCloud website- pretty sure it was "printed" and sold from there.

It wasn't MagCloud, it was printed by Edition One Books. I didn't see it on their website but I didn't look very hard. I had a hell of a time finding it. I got mine from some little gallery in Arizona who only had a couple left. I'll have to check when I get home.

I just got thru ordering a copy from John@422Gallery.com They're only $25 + shipping, and he still has a few signed copies.

I got a call from Edition One today that they had received a bunch of inquiries about this book and they wanted to know how it should be handled. I designed the book... Randy and Becky are friends of mine. Shawn, I am happy that you are pleased with the result. Yes, 422 is selling the books, or you can buy from Randy directly.

I'm only half way through (kinda savoring it, would be easy to read in one sitting!). It's a different take on what I've read about Brett so far. The personal photographs are fantastic and the layout is top notch.

I highly recommend it for any Brett fan.

Richard,
you many want to post the info HERE (http://www.apug.org/forums/forum56/102346-my-time-brett-randy-efros.html) as well.

Finished it last night. I can't say enough about the personal pictures, especially those of an older Brett photographing around Hawaii! =D This is a must have for any Brett fan/collector.

Shawn, thanks for posting. Randy provides a good portrayal of the Brett that I remember during his last dozen years. In some ways, he was the Brett of earlier times; the philosophy, routine, vision and dedication were constants.

Of course, I prefer to recall the younger Brett, still in his thirties when we met. The more youthful vitality, our photo travels and times together, is the Brett I most fondly remember. However, Randy's affection for Brett, shared by those fortunate to know him, comes through with clarity.

Is there a way to but this book without paying $15 shipping? Does buying directly from Randy cost so much?
