Very recommendable! Caution: Lot's of war photography!
Largely narrated by one of the surviving photo editors of Life Magazine! He is over 95 years old (three times a widower), his girl friend is 86 (one time widow). He claims widows do not fall easily in love again.
Lady's Home Journal. Magnum Photos agency.
Internment of Japanese Americans. German Blitz on London. Holocaust. Robert Capa. Henri Cartier-Bresson. Beaches of Normandy WW II. Chechen wars. Horrors of the Hiroshima atom bomb. September 11, 2001 World Trade Center.
Dangers of war journalism, when journalists become targets.
