About this Item

First Edition/First Printing. Softcover Original. 208 pages with index. There are few Americans who would not recognize Charles Moore's most famous photographs. His images of police dogs and fire hoses being turned on demonstrators in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963, became instant symbols, her and abroad, of the black struggle for equality. This book brings together the most significant pictures of the civil rights movement in the South from 1958 to 1965. Other than a small crease to the back cover top edge, this book has a near fine cover over a fine book. As new. Unread. From my smoke-free collection. Ships in well-padded box.
