128pp, 75 color illustrations. With a chronology. "Originally published in 1981, Susan Meiselas' "Nicaragua" is a modern classic - a seminal contribution to the literature of concerned photojournalism that forms an extraordinary narrative of a nation in turmoil. Starting with a powerful and chilling evocation of the Somoza regime during its decline in the late 1970s, the images trace the evolution of the popular resistance that led to the insurrection, culminating with the triumph of the Sandinista revolution in 1979. The 2008 edition includes "Pictures from a Revolution", a DVD in which Meiselas returns to the scenes she originally photographed, tirelessly tracking down the subjects and interviewing them about the reality of post-revolution Nicaragua. A brand new example of the 2025 Aperture third, updated edition (whose 1981 predecessor is cited on page 252 of Martin Parr and Gerry Badger's "The Photobook: A History Volume II" and page 245 of Fred Ritchin and Carole Naggar's "Magnum Photobook: A Catalogue Raisonné") additionally SIGNED by Susan Meiselas.
