The Boy: A Photographic Essay

Rate this book
Here is boyhood - that fleeting time of innocence and joy, of carefree abandon. Here are boys - exuberant, irrepressible boys, boys in the flower of youth. Here is THE BOY.
In a superb collection of more than four-hundred hauntingly beautiful photographs, magnificently reproduced in deep-etched black-and-white and rich, lifelike color, this book evokes the vital spirit, the ephemeral magic, of the Golden Years of boyhood.
Culled from the files of hundreds of photographers all over the world, these striking pictures depict boys of many lands flexing their minds and their muscles, delighting in themselves and in the world about them.
This book will appeal to every parent, educator, youth worker, or indeed to everyone who likes boys. It is a book to gladden the heart of the young in spirit.
All the black-and-white photographs are reproduced by the finest and most luxurious technique of printing available -sheet-fed gravure - making this an art volume you will be proud to own.
