Wraps. Zustand: good. 28 cm. 242 pages. Wraps. Profusely illustrated. Some wear and soiling to covers. This presents the camera's battlefield view, from the Crimean War to Vietnam. Contents: Crimean War 1984-1856; American Civil War 1861-1865; Franco-Prussian War 1870-1871; British Colonial Wars 1882-1902; Spanish-American War 1898-1899; Russo-Japanese War 1904-1905; World War I 1914-1918; Russian Revolution 1917-1919; Spanish Civil War 1936-1939; Chinese Civil War 1919-1949; World War II 1939-1945; Korean War 1950-1953; Six-Day War June 4-10, 1967; and Vietnam 1946-1973. This work begins with the Crimean War of 1854-56, when the camera made its firs appearance on any battlefield. It ends 119 years later in Vietnam. The camera's view is broad, the pictures as varied as the men and their increasingly new and devastating machines. The pictures are the work of great photographers, derived from military archives and library and museum collections in the United States and Europe. They have been chosen for their excellence and accuracy in conveying the character and mood of each conflict. The text, by an expert military historian, reports the context in which each war was fought and the high costs of its results. WAR is a major book--the first photographic history of mankind's most exciting and horrifying occupation. Presumed First Paperback Edition, First printing.
