Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good. Magnum photographer Larry Towell first traveled to El Salvador in 1986 as a member of a human rights delegation. Since the beginning of the civil war in 1979, 50, 000 people had been killed, 25 percent of the population had become refugees, and death squads terrorized the streets. The war ended in the early 1990s. Towell thoroughly documented both the war and its aftermath for a decade. In his haunting photographs, we see a world in which everyone is a combatant and every place a war zone. Yet amid the brutality and death there is a harsh beauty-people grieve and move on; peasant women wash clothes and nurse infants under the eyes of soldiers; children with hopeful faces forage the dumpsites for food.
