Product Story
This is the book that provides a unique view of history with quirky and unexpected National Geographic photographs and the stories behind them. Compiled and described by a museum curator, this collection of more than 300 resonant images from National Geographic magazine’s voluminous archives covers the full gamut of subjects to satisfy those with an appreciation for the offbeat. The photos range from a 1940 shot of Ronald Reagan as a sculpture-class model; to a 14th-century drawing, discovered in the margins of a calendar, showing a medieval baseball game; to tuxedo-clad waiters venturing out on steel beams to bring lunch to construction workers building the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York. 352 pages. 9 1/4" H x 7" W x 1 1/4" D. (12 oz.)
