Eddie found a listing on Amazon.com for a Star Wars Year by Year: A Visual Chronicle, a Dan Wallace hardcover for DK Children. The blurb:
Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of The Empire Strikes Back in style!
Four decades of Star Wars history come together for the first time in a highly illustrated year-by-year format. Star Wars Year by Year pulls together a vast array of information from the films, comic books, novels, merchandise, and computer games. Star Wars Year by Year provides fans with everything they need to know about the phenomenon that is Star Wars, from the first Star Wars release in 1977 through the most recent plot twists in the animated television show Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
The book is chronologically arranged from 1973 to 2009, and includes stunning chapter openers for each decade, highly illustrated articles for each year that delve into important events in the creation of the movies and comic book art, and fascinating facts about the influence of Star Wars in the real world.
The release date is given as July 19, 2010.
Hey cool — thanks Eddie!
This will be similar to the Marvel Chronicle, which you can view sample pages from here: http://bit.ly/3a8KdB
Also, the book’s other writers include Ryder Windham and Pablo Hidalgo.
Dan, that looks fantastic! Please move up the publishing date. ::grin::
Next, can you tackle a book that is strictly about fandom? I want something that captures all of us in our geekiness.
Thanks Paula! Regarding a book on fandom — and let me caveat that I don’t have any info on this book at all — but Star Wars Generations might have that already sewn up: http://bit.ly/o84Yp
