"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Robert Capa, born in Hungary, was known for his extreme bravery, amazing eye, and irrestitible charm. He was a co-founder of the Magnum cooperative picture agency and died in 1954 after stepping on a landmine while on an assignment in Indochina. His life and work were inextricably linked, and both have had a marked influence on generations of photographers. Richard Whelan is an outstanding authority on Capa's life and work. He is a New York-based independent cultural historian and the author of several books, including acclaimed biographies of Robert Capa and Alfred Stieglitz.
"...A breathtaking history and compelling life story that will make you feel you have lived five or six lives yourself."-Black & White Magazine for Collectors of Fine Photography "A special treat... It contains almost 1,000 of his finest images... Comprehensive and vivid."-Military Illustrated "A unique perspective on the twentieth century."-Marie-Claire "A terrific overview of one photographer's varied and heroic life."-Independent on Sunday "[Capa] never lost his zest for life or his empathy with suffering... This deeply humane quality is, in fact, detectable in all of his pictures, which is why they are so moving."-Times Literary Supplement
