I Powerful Days: The Civil Rights Photography of Charles Moore (Little. Brown £12.95 1 The US civil rights mot ement belongs to that handful of events that define the 20th century. Moore accompanied the upheaval most of the way: his photographs appeared in the American and
internationalpress.and
he was often applauded for helping mobilise
sympathy for the cause
pleaded so movingly by Martin Luther King. With a readable. ifslightly weak. text to put the pictures in context.

Quite rightly . the images do not all point to a single emotion: the fear. joy. anger. hatred arid defiance are all there. Some of the photographs are unforgettable. and many will ring bells.
