The chronology of Capa's work, a monument in the history of the medium, marks out the pages of this volume rich in pictures, giving on the one hand a sense of its vastness and on the other tracing the way he worked in the field.

It follows the main stages of a path whose brilliance has almost no equal, letting several icons emerge from an exceptional body of work. His accounts of conflict shaped his legend, but Capa — while often the first and the closest — also shows us reality from other angles.
