Notes from front jacket flap: "This is the story of a gallant, beautiful and glamorous American woman". For more than 3 decades, Margaret Bourke-White had made photographic history in seeing the artistic and storytelling potential of American industry, among the first to write social criticism with a lens, and a venturesome foreign correspondent reporting, with her camera, wars, politics, and social and political revolution on 3 continents. She writes of mastering her craft, and of her assignments and the challenges they brought. Her era included many of the world's international events, which she covered. Then, stricken with Parkinson's Disease treated with innovative brain surgery, and winning that battle. Life Magazine covered that story, followed by a documentary TV film. Her photos appear throughout this volume. Back cover portrait of Bourke-White by Alfred Eisenstaedt, for Life Magazine.
