The Art of War
2003/3/11
By Kevin Cosgrove
- (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
Peter Howe has carefully crafted a stunning book. He combines the images of 10 renowned combat photographers with a stark, spare, and candid narrative, as each describes their work.
The book succeeds at many levels. Idealism, adrenaline and ambition are sometimes countered by regret. The photographers are complex and complicated. Some have been wounded -one deliberately by an Israeli soldier, it's alleged- all are battle hardened, streetwise and changed. The reality of war; blood in the snow; dying men; chilling bravado; starving children; crumbled buildings; is on every page. We know what war is like because the photographers are there for us.

Startling insights
2003/5/30
By J. Gifford
- (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
It's not the photos in this book that captured me -- yes they're astounding, but I've seen many of them before -- it's the journalists' write-ups beside the photos that I found intriguing. I never realized before the angst that haunts war photographers, the guilt that plagues them when they file their photos and stories with their editors. They make money on other people's suffering, yet their photos often help the people who suffer by informing the world of what's going on. But for the most part they can't help the one person they've captured so brilliantly in one frozen moment in time, and because of that many can't sleep at night. They make the world a better, safer place, and pay for it with damaged psyches.

A moving, insightful tribute

Peter Howe has assembled a powerful, moving collection of war photographs combined with the recollections of the photographers who made the pictures. At a time when we are on the verge of entering a conflict much like the conflicts covered by these photographers, "Shooting Under Fire" stands as a startling reminder of the grim, merciless and all-too-human realities of war.
