Decades of the 20th Century. Photographs from the Getty collection. Fascinating photographs put images of the power of an event or the zaniness of new trends right before the viewers' eyes. The force of war and political conflict is just as important a theme as world-shaking innovations in science and technology. These are accompanied by portraits of great personalities in art, politics, and society.

PHOTOS OF THE DECADE,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The 1950s (Decades of the 20th Century) (Paperback)
This book, and the others in the series--1920s through the 1970s--are remarkable for their vast array of photos depicting just about every aspect of each decade. They are MORE than worth the price! The photos are accompanied by descriptions and these "little" books are BIGGER than you think when you start them!

The previous review is INCORRECT,
By Sara "Ms. Adventures in Italy" (Milan, Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The 1950s (Decades of the 20th Century) (Paperback)
Though this book has a lot of pictures from England, etc., it definitely includes the U.S., Russia, and other European countries. I believe these books are a fun and informative slice of history for those of us who weren't there. They are definitely worth more than they cost.

ENGLAND in the 1950's,
By arthur (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The 1950s (Decades of the 20th Century) (Paperback)
Something I didn't see mentioned before buying this book is that it's about ENGLAND in the 1950's. If that's what you're looking for, I'd give it four stars. But since that's not mentioned anywhere I only give it two.
