    Stunning collection that takes you on an evocative journey through the decades in Ireland - great both for bringing back memories and giving a window into before we were born.

    Superb pictures of social change in Ireland
  

*by K***E on 13 November 2015*









  
  
    The Magnum photographic agency was established in the late 1940s. Then, as now, it was an agency for photo-journalists, photographers who documented the social activities, and the social changes in a society.This is the book of a touring exhibition of photographs which began in 2006. The book is divided into decades from the 1950s to the first half of the 2000s. Each decade has an introduction briefly describing the social change in Ireland, both North and South. Some of these essays assume some background knowledge of what was happening; the more casual reader might struggle to appreciate all that happened. It isn't a book of glossy photos of the Irish idyll, thatched cottages, children playing nearby in the sunchine, with the greenery in the distance with a few lakes and mountains. Indeed, it's not at all clear if such an idyll ever existed beyond the imaginations of 'Dev' and the leaders of the Catholic church; it's clear from the photos and the essays just how the palsied hands of the political and religious leaders in both parts of the island held back progress, and how and why so many chose to emigrate.This is a record of social change, albeit incomplete; the photos are representative of the changes in society, but not all changes are shown. This, I guess, is because many journalists only came when a 'story' beckoned; some did spend longer in the country, and what they all portray is their own, individualistic viewpoints.

    Brilliant Photography
  

*by A***N on 1 May 2009*









  
  
    I bought this book as a gift for a friend. We had seen the photos a few years back in an exhibition. The photos are great, some take you right back down memory lane. Would highly recommend this book.
