From inside front flap: This is the most unusual book to be published about the bullfight. It is, through the use of a single photgraph on each page, arranged in the natural order of one complete corrida de toros, an almost cinematic experience. It is a book that one looks through time and again, and, as Norman Mailer says in his brilliant essay "Footnote to Death in the Afternoon," which precedes the photographs, a certain magic seems to emerge from the pages. Some of the matadors are unknown, struggling with an animal which has obviously mastered them; but then, to keep the record straight, we have Luis Miguel Dominguin and Antonio Ordonez working with bulls in a way that is no work at all. And for valor alone, there is El Cordobes.
