`Endearing ... Koch's snapshots of the snappers are suitably snappy, his prose style being brisk but revealing' --The Independent on Sunday

`A wonderful guide to 200 of the world's most outstanding photographers and their work ... The photographs are in turn eye-popping, heartbreaking, beautiful, mysterious and strange' --Black & White Photography

`visually appealing reference book you can come back to time and agian, this is it' --Professional Photographer

`More than 250 timeless classics'
--The Mail on Sunday

'Thames & Hudson would appear to be the leader in producing affordable anthologies of the world's best photographers and images. Photobox only reaffirms the publisher's position' --Amateur Photographer

'If you don't already have a Photography's Greatest Hits type book ... this compact and nicely presented book ... would be a fine choice'
--What Digital Camera?

4.0 out of 5 stars photo box photography in focus - book 26 Mar 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Overall it is a very interesting read, giving you an insight into present and past photographers, the organisation of the book means you can flick through genre to genre and is quite inspirational when photographers block happens. Worth getting a good copy and keeping handy when ideas start to run a bit low.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Overview of Photography Classics 21 Mar 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
A great concept.. one page per photograph from the archives and one page with information about the specific image and about the photographer. A great selection of images.. very thought provoking. Many are not the most commonly seen by the photographers which makes it all the more engrossing.
The 'box' concept is the only problem I have. It makes it hard to hold at times...the flap gets in the way.
