Vintage 70's book. Titled "Documentary Photography" by the editors of Time-Life Books. Not every photograph is a documentary for it must convey a message that sets it apart from a landscape, a portrait, a street scene. It may record an event, but that event must have some general significance, more than the specific significance of a news photo. It may record character or emotion, but again of some general social significance. The documentary photograph tells us something important about our world and in the best examples, makes us think about the world in a new way. Hardcover.
