Beschrijving boek
Edited by Leo Rosten. Foreword by Gardner Cowles.
35 astounding years of triumph and tragedy and laughter ... a treasury by the finest photographers and writers of our time!
From February 1937 to October 1971, LOOK Magazine offered its readers ‘the exciting story of people, what they do, what they feel, what they think’ - the credo formulated by its publishers, Gardner Cowles.
The Look Book is a lavishly illustrated anthology presenting the triumphant, the tragic, the humorous, the sometimes near-magical story of people’s lives. Through essays, captions, and hundreds of exceptional pictures, The Look Book opens diverse windows onto the events of the past four decades by spotlighting the many aspects that have affected our destiny, from science, history, religion, and politics to the lively and the fine arts, gastronomy, manners and morals, and the sexes.
LOOK’s greatest contribution to journalism was undoubtedly its photographs, and The Look Book includes the most memorable - pictures that leave a haunting impact on the reader long after the page has been turned.
