Description:

During the 1930s, the world of photography was unsettled, exciting, and boisterous. John Raeburn's A Staggering Revolution re-creates the era's energy by surveying photography's extraordinary ferment, revealing the esthetic and cultural achievements of its leading figures and mapping the paths their pictures blazed into the public's imagination.
