Robert Capa was the most highly acclaimed war photographer of his time, and one of the most courageous photojournalist who ever lived. His startling, often shocking images of the realities of war served to bring home the true horrors of combat, while conveying the intense humanity of their creator. Capa hated war, but he was drawn to it. From his earliest pictures of the Republican forces in the Spanish Civil War, to the Japanese invasion of China, from his work as a war correspondent for Life and Collier covering American conflicts in North Africa and Europe during the second World War, to the emergence of the Israeli homeland, Capa portrayed the incredible heroism and suffering of the soldiers on the front lines and in the war-torn lives of civilians. Although his career was cut short when he was tragically killed by a land mine in Thai-Binh, Indochina, Capa remains one of the most celebrated, imitated, and revered photographers of all the time. The more than 100 photos presented in this volume spans the entire spectrum of Capa's varied career, including his most legendary Hollywood photo's, and rare images of post-war Germany.
