Getting behind the picture is the best thing that can happen to a photography fan. We were so pleased to see so many of our own photographers in this book.

"The author has a journalist eye for mystery and controversy.... This is a book that gives you the big picture on the big pictures down to the smallest detail."
Photo Review Magazine, Sydney
Australia
A different picture should have been displayed if you want it to sell in the US-this is NOT acceptable for a regular bookstore because of the cover-you might want to redo it for the US!

"Dans cette Petite histoire de la photographie, l`auteur, historien et rédacteur en chef de Leica World (Excusez du peu !), retrace plus de 178 ans de photographie depuis Nicéphore Niépce en 1827. Un étonnant voyage dans le temps au casting magnifique. Que de grands noms offrent ainsi leur participation, à l`instar de Jacques-Henri Lartigue, August Sander, Robert Capa ou Helmut Newton dont l`un de ses clichés orne la couverture de l`album. Pour les 36 artistes choisis, une photographie est expliquée et analysée, le tout formant à la fois une histoire mais aussi un véritable cours de photo."

"Lesenswerte Geschichten hinter berühmten Fotos."

"Es ist nicht nur unerklärliche Magie, aber auch nicht bloss Zufall, dass ein Bild zur Ikone, zu etwas Größerem gerinnen lässt, sondern seine Symbolhaftigkeit. Das schwant einem, wenn man im klugen und vergnüglich zu lesenden Photo Icons liest."
Cash, Zürich

"De Niépce a Sebatiao Salgado, cada imagen es descrita y analizada a detalle, dentro de su contexto hitórico y estético."

"Spannender kann man Fotogeschichte nicht darbieten."

"Riefenstahl's photographs preserve a mythic vision of this Eden before the fall, a romantic lost world, captured in images as powerfully seductive as the artist herself." -V Magazine, Los Angeles
