A visual journey through two centuries of history: this book collects one hundred iconic photographs that captured crucial moments in human history. From world wars to space exploration, civil rights movements to climate change, each image is a window into the past, present, and even a possible future.

Taken by legendary photographers or anonymous witnesses of their time, these pictures showcase the powerful storytelling ability of photography as a tool of collective memory.

A striking, emotional, and visually rich volumeβ€”this updated edition of a bestselling classic brings history into sharp focus for today’s readers.
