A delightful, thoughtful, and sometimes wacky sightseeing tour of many of the major personalities and events of the last fifty years by one of America's liveliest photographers for Life, Time, and other assignments. "Not a picture book, but a book with pictures. Art Shay's photography shakes you up, sets you down gently, pats you on the head, and then kicks you in the ass. Shay doesn't see through the camera lens but beyond it, to the truth of his photographs." - Roger Ebert. "Art Shay is one of our truest photographers. His work over the past fifty years has artfully captured the beauty, humor, and pathos of America." - Studs Terkel. This book contains an introduction by Garry Wills and is heavily illustrated.
