I am a big photojournalist buff. This is everything and more. Photos that are world famous are in this book. If you are into it as much as I am, you should get it.

You know, when rival news organizations argue about who amoung them is the best, The Associated Press simply reports their battles. The cooperative wrote the book on journalism (actually several of them.) Mark Twain is quoted on the back cover "There are only two forces that can carry light to all corners of the globe, the sun in the heavens and The Associated Press down here." Who else can claim that endorsement? Of course it was Mohandas K. Gandhi who said "I suppose when I go to the Hereafter and stand at the Golden Gate, the first person I shall meet will be a correspondent of The Assocated Press."

I'm a brazilian journalismo student and have seen many of the book's photos in brazilian newspaper. But all together is the best! Congratulations. Tomaz Cavalieri
