Note: This is a pioneering work by a pioneering figure. In words and images, Cartier-Bresson essentially defined the emerging art of photojournalism. The title of the book has itself become a definition of both Cartier-Bresson's work and of the genre as a whole. When this ground breaking tome was published in 1952, it set the standard for the future of the field, and has maintained its' position of importance ever since.
