This series depicts worldwide events of the twentieth century in a novel way. Fascinating black-and-white photographs from the Getty Images collection put images of the power of an event or the zaniness of new trends right before the viewersa?? eyes. The force of wars and political conflicts is just as important a theme in these comprehensive volumes as world-shaking innovations in science and technology. These are accompanied by portraits of great personalities in art, politics, and society. The lives of everyday people with their (at the time) common and not-so-common curiosities also comprise an extensive part of each book: sailing on roller skates in 1929, painted-on nylon stockings in 1947, or a dry cleanera??s where the charge for miniskirts varies according to their length.

The 1930s was a decade of rapid social, economic and political change. It saw the biggest economic crisis and depression of the global capitalist system had yet seen. Combined with this, there was growing social conflict in European society between Right and Left. All these factors had an impact on how photographers viewed their role in society. As the editor of this work Ulman shows, photography is this period shows a greater concern with 'Social Realism'. The work here depicts social life in all its facets in Britain and the rest of Europe in this period. The book itself is in pristine condition. Spine and covers all excellent. Pages tight, clean and unmarked. A really lovely copy of this important work of social and photographic history.
