Review: Great book. - If you are uncertain as to how great a street photographer he is, then get this book. There are so many smart photographs, it is both inspiring and deeply humbling. If you want to be inspired and humbled, then get this book!
Review: The Greatness of Cartier-Bresson - One of the absolutely best photo books I have in my collection. The stories, letters and photographs are simply awe inspiring and you gained significant insight about an unusual man and his travels and photography. Cartier-Bresson ranks at the top of who may very well be the best photographer of our time. I doubt few would argue that point. I knew the size of the book but it seemed even bigger when I go it and definitely heavier. The binding was superb and printing about as good as it gets. Any fan of this man, his works and photography in general would do well to have this book in their library of great ones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stunning Photography
*by K***P on November 27, 2010*

I saw an exhibit of Cartier-Bresson's work a few months back at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, but instead of purchasing the book at the museum, decided to order it from amazon.com. I got a brand new copy (wrapped) and saved approximately $15 (of what it would have cost me at the museum shop!) The book arrived very quickly. It is absolutely beautiful. The reproduction of these stunning photographs by this world-renowned photographer is incredibly well-done and it is a wonderful book to own and to share with anyone who appreciates good photography. Or just appreciates the moments in a lifetime, because this is what Cartier-Bresson captures...little moments, big moments but mostly moments when his subjects were not even aware they were being photographed. There are photos from all over the world and spanning many decades, some celebrities, but lots of ordinary men, women and children as well. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in photography and art. You will be mesmerized by his work.
