Reprint Edition. Quarto. 28cm. Publisher's photographic card wraps. 208pp. Very light wear, internally clean, a near fine copy. Reprinted from the first edition of 1991, "Powerful Days" collects 188 of Moore's most powerful photographs of the civil rights struggle in Alabama from the late 1950's into the 1960's and the height of the brutality and violence visited upon both people of color fighting for their human and civil rights, and those who supported them. The text, from Michael Durham, the Alabama staff writer who often accmpanied Moore on his stories, illustrates how initially the unrest was presented as a "local" issue, but how, as the violence and the brutality of white communities faced with a threat to their authority and supremacy escalated, it became a mission of sorts to find a way of communicating the levels of cruelty and inhumanity to the wider world. The introduction, in a testament to the power and influence of Moore's photography, comes from Andrew Young, confidante and aide of Martin Luther King Jr. and an ex US Ambassador to the UN.
