Reviews
This is a landmark photobook, singular, and a precious contribution to our collective memory--it will become a classic., A landmark book charting key moments in the U.S. as seen through the lenses of the world's most famous photographers., If you read only one photo book in your lifetime, let it be Magnum America: The United States . . . Combines more than 600 captivating images from its collection into 472 pages, and each of them is a hit . . . There is no better introduction to American postwar history than the photographs included in this book. What's more is that there may be no better introduction to the history of photography, either.

Synopsis
An epic visual history of the places, people, mythologies, and realities of the United States across eight decades from the renowned photography collective Magnum Photos. What is "America"? What does it look like? Where can it be found? What does "America" mean and for whom? This ambitious publication does not attempt to present a comprehensive photographic history of the United States but uses the stories and photographs in the Magnum Archive to offer potential answers to those questions. In doing so, it presents a compelling visual portrait of the USA, past and present, as it stands once again at a crossroads of history. Magnum America is arranged into decade-by-decade chapters from the 1940s to the present day. Each chapter includes individual "Moments" capturing that decade; deeper views through "Collective Portfolios" where multiple Magnum photographers documented a major historic event; and long-form, story-led individual portfolios that examine issues, peoples, and events as portrayed by Magnum photographers. Commentaries and texts appear throughout and there are innovative metadata visualizations based on the Magnum archives, highlighting the multiple voices and perspectives that define both Magnum and the United States. The book looks beyond the fifty states to invite us to consider the concept of "America as Empire," with military and political adventures and misadventures abroad, including Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, as well as soft power and "America" as a cultural export. Breathtaking in scope and abundant with the photographic riches and intelligent, insightful authorship for which Magnum's photographers are renowned, as well as texts by Professor Laura Wexler alongside other contributing writers, Magnum America is a vital contribution to the documentation of contemporary American history and a future classic., What is "America"?

I received my book five days after ordering, and it arrived in better condition than "very good"; along with its cd as advertised. The seller took care with packaging, which I appreciate:) They also priced this out of print book about pionus parrots very fairly in my opinion, and I deeply appreciate the chance to finally read it!
