Photographs from the Magnum archives reveal diverse aspects of China during this fifty year period, including landscapes and peoples, years of war and strife, the turbulent years under Mao, and later new phenomena. Throughtout that period a few photographers did manage to travel in China and record what was happening there. They included Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, Rene Burri, Inge Morath and others whose archives are now collected. From this rich source over 150 photographs have been selected and woven together in a sequence. Good condition, inscription inside, slight crease mark and small tear to bottom of dust jacket.
