Non-Fiction Photography
The most famous, wonderful AND inspiring pictures ever to
appear in the pages of LIFE are here. All the great action
shots are here--from the sailor kissing the nurse to the
first astronaut walking in space. The unsurpassed
portraiture-- from screen icons like Marilyn Monroe and
Elizabeth Taylor to world leaders including John Fitzgerald
Kennedy and Winston Churchill--are all here as well.
LIFE has, of course, visited its archives
before--but never like this. This edition puts the
photographs on display, not only as part of the page layout
but as the page itself. The explanatory text will be out of
the way, so that each image can be savored. Moreover, prints
will be included that are not just suitable for framing, but
meant for framing. And not only will there be photographic
prints; there will also be 75 other famous pictures that
appeared in LIFE's pages, the story behind each of them and
the narrative history of what LIFE's photography has long
meant to the country and, indeed, to the world.
