Even though he had never left his home country and was a bit apprehensive about his future, Perlmutter was looking forward to photographing Europe and visiting all those wonderful places that I had read about and seen in the movies. Almost 60 years after the images were conceived, they clearly document the photographer s sense of the special moment. Every single image becomes a lively piece in the puzzle of remembrance, reporting accurately on the historical period, but also capturing very personal encounters. His insightful work has a long-lasting effect, and allows those pictures to come alive. Again and again. Even after all those many years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Perlmutter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3942831708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783942831703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seltmann Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.04h x 9.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Bill Perlmutter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48446440964351,"sku":"9783942831703","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b9322c29-a08a-4d9f-8780-98e2220f7d48.jpg?v=1777224649","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/through-a-soldiers-lens-bill-perlmutter-9783942831703","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
