Product Description
Philip Jones Griffiths, president of Magnum Photos for five years, created in Vietnam, Inc. a record of the war in almost Biblical proportions. No one who has seen it will forget its haunting images. In Agent Orange, he adds a postscript that is equally unforgettable.
About the Author
Philip Jones Griffiths was born in Rhuddian, Wales in 1936. While studying pharmacy in Liverpool he became a part-time photographer for The Manchester Guardian, and later joined The Observer newspaper. He covered the Algerian war in 1962, and since then has covered most of the major conflicts throughout the world. His epic book, Vietnam, Inc., published in 1971 and recently re-published by Phaidon Press, is recognised as pivotal in changing US attitudes to the war. Agent Orange is, in some ways, his epilogue to that great work, and reflects not only his commitment to a valid, if cataclysmic, explanation of war, but also to the people of Vietnam.
