Black and white documentary pictures of vietnamese civilians during the war in Vietnam.
Great layout.

Propaganda pathos, which already resounds in the very title of the book Staszyszyn combined with spectacular tourist views and posed military scenes creates a rather ambivalent whole. The aspiring photographer's aspirations have found a decent setting here - it is certainly one of the more visually-impressed Polish photobooks from the 1970s - but this was possible only due to the special political needs. It is worth noting that the book appeared as the author's work of the photographer whose name is in its title. The photographs published in it were created by order of the Central Photographic Agency.


Very rare!
