Description: MEXICO - THE REVOLUTION AND BEYOND good condition, measures approx 9-3/4 x 13 inches, 219 pages, hardcover, dust jacket Acclaimed author and journalist Pete Hamill hails Agustin Victor Casasola as "one of the giants of twentieth-century photography, bringing to vivid life the events surrounding the immense social cataclysm called the Mexican Revolution. Casasola photographed it all, from the lavish celebration in 1910 of President Porfirio Diaz's eighth election, to the day one year later when he sailed into exile and Mexico City's streets were filled with joyful citizens saluting the rebel Francisco Madero. In about 1912, Casasola and his brother, Miguel, created what may be one of the world's first photo agencies, working with a group of photographers to cover Mexico in all its aspects - from crime and the courts to entertainment, industry, and home life. The archive the Casasola brothers established, comprised of nearly 500,000 images, has become a treasure of the Mexican government. Reproduced in this book are more than 150 stunning images from the collection.
