"HCB... his photographs need no explanations; they always speak volumes all by their lonesome. The biggest thrill would be to see them mounted on a wall, but this small book's display of them does these 40 plus classic shots justice and is so inspiring that it warrants many viewings. Most of the material in this book predates the 60's and the proof of their brilliance is that they still hold much value way into the 21st Century."
"This was one of my first picture-books as a child. It was not until many years into my career as a news photographer that I realized that the book's photographs were actually by the esteemed Henri Cartier-Bresson. Perhaps impeding the realization was the, gasp, adequacy of the photos. Sorry, Henri, not your finest.
(Incidentally, the title of this book is Cartier-Bresson's France. Text is by François Nourissier.)"
"hella fantastic at composing photographic images with 35mm... this is a great (but small) introduction into this famous photographer's work. not quite up to par with his work during the magnum years... lots of good stuff taken in russia though."
