100 Photographs that Changed the World

Hardcover - great condition The power of pictures is celebrated in this portfolio of the most forceful still images of all time. Robert Capa`s dispatches from the beach at Normandy and Joe Rosenthal`s photographic report of Iwo Jima stirred a nation, as did-in quite an opposite way-Eddie Adams` and Larry Burrows` searing imagery from Vietnam. LIFE thinks outside the box in this book: Did Marilyn Monroe`s pinup change the world? Did Harry Benson`s photography of the Beatles deplaning in New York in 1964 alter our cultural focus? The pictures in this book are sometimes beautiful, often striking-and undeniably powerful.
