The Prehistory of The Far Side
''The Prehistory of The Far Side: A 10th Anniversary Exhibit'' is a book chronicling the origin and evolution of ''The Far Side'' (including cartoonist Gary Larson's first strip, ''Nature's Way''), giving inside information about the cartooning process and featuring a gallery of Larson's favorite ''Far Side'' cartoons from the 1980s.
== Part 1: Origin of the Species ==
Larson recounts his childhood by showing several pictures supposedly drawn by him when he was a kid. (Example: A picture of a kid sitting on a tire in pitch blackness sports the caption "I believe this is my earliest memory of riding in the car when my family took our annual vacation.") He shows panels of ''Nature's Way'' and talks about his early struggles as a cartoonist before he established himself in the field. While on vacation from his regular job as an investigator for the local humane society ("to whom I never disclosed the fact that on the way to the job interview I ran over a dog"), he left his one and only copy of his portfolio at the headquarters of the ''San Francisco Chronicle'', waiting several days until they decided to hire him. After returning home, he received a letter that his local newspaper had decided to discontinue ''Nature's Way''. Larson says that if the letter had arrived a week earlier, "I never would have made the trip to San Francisco. The wind would definitely have gone out of my sails."
