About This Item
Boston: New York Graphic Society, , 1979. Rilegato tela, sovracoperta (cloth, dust jacket). Molto buono (Very Good). Prefazione di Mary Lloyd Estrin. Introduzione di Robert Coles. 70 fotografie in bianco e nero di Mary Lloyd Estrin. 8vo (cm 24,5x29). pp. 116. Molto buono (Very Good). Sovracoperta leggermente sciupata, segno di pennarello alla prima pagina (Lightly worn, dust jacket, small stain of marker at the first page). Prima edizione (First Edition). This book is a portait of one on America's invisible minorities. The men are lawyers, stockbrokres, boardchairmen. Their wives usually combine raising a family with civic and cultural activities. The childrenlive in rooms only slightly less grand than those of their parents. Their towns and neighborhoods are extraordinary havens, brimming with the good things of life. These people are, in Robert Cole's words, the “privileged ones”. Their way of life is distinctive – and disappearing – and it is captured in 70 penetrating photographs by Mary Lloyd Estrin. Questo libro è il ritratto di una delle minoranze invisibili d'America. Gli uomini sono avvocati, agenti di borsa, presidenti di consiglio. Le loro mogli di solito combinano l'educazione della famiglia con attività civiche e culturali. I bambini vivono in stanze poco meno grandi di quelle dei loro genitori. Le loro città e i loro quartieri sono paradisi straordinari, traboccanti di cose belle della vita. Queste persone sono, secondo le parole di Robert Cole, i "privilegiati". Il loro stile di vita è caratteristico - e sta scomparendo - ed è catturato in 70 penetranti fotografie di Mary Lloyd Estrin.
