Vintage 1971 Softcover B&W Photography “The Vietnam Photo Book” by Mark Jury
As shown. See all photos. Aesthetically seen better days in terms of the cover and the page edges. Functionally in solid condition. “The photographs, accompanied by quotations, anecdotes and explanations, record the many faces of the Vietnam War: limbless children; beggars and prostitutes; Bob Hope and his entourage of shapely celebrities.““SynopsisIn July of 1968 I found myself standing in line ready to start basic training at Ft Dix N.J. Standing next to me was a hippie - long hair, beard, hippie clothes. That hippie was Mark Jury and over the next two months we became close friends. Mark detested the war, as did I, but he was determined to see it first hand. Mark expected to be assigned to the infantry but in its infinite wisdom, the Army assigned Mark to the Information Service - or some such thing - and gave him complimentary reign to cover Vietnam. The result is this fantastic book.”
