Keiichi Akimoto - Vietnam at War - 1965
1965 special issue of Asahi Graph reporting the realities of war; includes Ken Kaiko’s early milestone “Vietnam War Chronicle.”
Published by Asahi Shimbun as an emergency feature, this supplement documents the Vietnam conflict with text in Japanese and a large format of approx. 33 × 26 cm. It brings together Ken Kaiko’s dispatches from February 1965 and a powerful body of photographs by staff photographer Keiichi Akimoto, conveying on-the-ground tension and human expression. Contemporary accounts noted that some 200 war correspondents were active and only a small fraction returned, a severity reflected in these pages.
Regarded as a classic of reportage, Kaiko narrowly escaped death during this assignment. Accompanying him, Akimoto produced one of his defining series, recording in detail the harrowing execution of a Vietnamese high-school student. Beyond photojournalism, this volume stands as a valuable primary source for researchers and collectors of modern war reporting.
