4.0 out of 5 stars a moving and emotional journey, 26 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This book is full of incredibly emotive imagery, I was amazed to find so many photos that I have admired over the years were taken by Cartier-Bresson, maybe you will too. The photos make you rethink historical events, times gone by and about the construction of a 'good' photograph; unpicking why each photogrpah works so successfully. The only drawback is some of the larger images are interrupted by the spine of the book, and some are a little too small. Overall worth the expense.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best black and white photos ever, 5 Feb 2009
Everyone that like me loves the photo of Henri Cartier Bressons should have this book. It is beautifully made and includes all kinds of photos he took during his long photographic carrier. A most for black and white photo lovers and Bressons lovers especially.
