Description

Hundreds of bearded men strutted their stuff at the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships in Anchorage, Alaska, U.S, and photographer Matthew Rainwaters was there to capture it all. This resulting collection of portraits features the bushiest, most stylish, and downright weirdest beards from around the world. This magnificent showcase of facial hair also includes essays by several of the competitors.

Reviews

"Rainwaters manages to sidestep any hint of kitsch, instead offering honest portraits of hirsute men sporting looks from sublime to decidedly odd and over the top, making the slim volume an ideal stocking-stuffer for the thoughtful hipster in your life." -Dallas Morning News
