Publisher's Synopsis
Meet Roger Dayton, photojournalist, wanderer, accidental truth-teller. He's been embedded in conflict zones, thrown into prisons, chased through burning streets, and always finds himself somewhere he doesn't belong. A recurring figure in the Reality Dispatch universe, Roger's adventures blur the line between reporting and surviving, capturing fleeting moments in history that may or may not have happened.
This collection brings together every Roger Dayton story ever published under the iconic Live Magazine banner. These are tales that read like fifties-era LIFE photo-essays gone rogue. Told with dry wit, sharp observation, and a camera always clicking in the background, The Dayton Files is a dispatch from a world just askew of our own.
Whether he's filing copy from war-torn cities or the edge of madness, Roger Dayton has a story to tell, and this time they're all in one place.
