Picture This!: The Inside Story and Classic Photos of UPI
Newspictures
by
Gary Haynes
Foreword by Walter Cronkite.
Written and compiled by a veteran United Press International
photographer and editor, PICTURE THIS! tells the stories behind the
stories—and how some of the most iconic and revealing news pictures
of the late 20th century came to be.
There are powerful photographs of the Civil Rights struggles,
the Vietnam War, and great moments in sports, entertainment, and
politics.
PICTURE THIS! follows the development of the wire picture
services, the storied competition between smaller but scrappier UPI
and its far larger competitor,
Associated Press, and how UPI's 11.5 million-picture library
ended up in a Pennsylvania cave, owned by Bill Gates' Corbis.
