NY: Aperture, 1997. (USA) 1st printing. No msrkings, Fine in Fine dust jacket. Boards, 96pp, B&W photos. This is the first publiction to birng Khaddei's photographs of life in the Soviet Union and of World War II to a Western audience. From the jacket: One of the greatest Soviet treasures to come to light after the end of the cold war is the work of the photographer Yevgeny Khaldei. A staff photographer for the Soviet news agency TASS during World War II, Khaldei produced a tremendous and valuable archive of images. He covered every day of the conflict from the German invasion of the USSR in 1941 to the fall of Berlin in 1945, where he raced to the roof of the burning Reichstag to take his famous photograph of a soldier hoisting the Soviet flag. His unflinching approach, and the moving images that resulted, have led to comparisons with the work of Robert Capa. (2.5 JM HOZ 403/b3. 1st. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12".
