Havana: The Revolutionary Moment presents a unique collection of never-before-seen photographs by veteran Magnum photographer Burt Glinn, recording Fidel Castro's historic entry into Havana. In the introductory memoir, Glinn describes the combination of chutzpah & journalistic prescience that led him to leave a New York party & hop a plane to Havana on New Year's Eve, 1959. The photographs he returned with--of Fidel thronged by his countrymen & women as he stops to encourage them along the road to Havana, of troops embracing, & of fierce men & women alike taking up arms in the street--are full of the revolutionary fervor & idealistic anticipation that characterized that moment in Cuban history.Glinn, Burt is the author of 'Anthony Fry ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781884167072 and ISBN 1884167071.
