A good and decent man, who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it.

Gorgeous gorgeous book. The photographs are so affecting, and do something more than words of tribute could.

Amazing images - simultaneously emotionally evocative and high art. Couldn't put it down.

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.

Kodachrome, 1968, and a nation full of emotion. Powerful stuff.
