Published to coincide with the 40th anniversary of Senator Robert F. Kennedy's assassination, this long-awaited follow-up to Fusco's acclaimed "RFK Funeral Train" features more than 70 newly discovered, never-before-seen images of this pivotal moment in U.S. history. Introduction by Senator Edward M. Kennedy.
Paul Fusco died shortly before John Lewis, so these pictures were fresh in mind when the great Civil Rights leader left us. Taken from aboard the funeral train that bore Kennedy from New York to his burial in Arlington, these photos capture many of the people who lined the tracks to honor Kennedy. Individually and as a group, they make for a terrible beauty.
