The impact and development of warfare in the age of photography is vividly shown in this explosive collection of images that covers all the major conflicts -- and some lesser known ones -- from the Crimea in the mid-nineteenth century, through the First and Second World Wars, to the Iraq War.
Just as technological advances have had a major effect on the ways in which wars are fought and won, so they have enhanced the art of the photographer, allowing him or her to capture ever more insightful pictures that record the decisive moments of battle as well as the human scars and devastation that result. 'War in Focus' is not just a visual history of warfare, it is also a testament to the art, skill and courage of the person behind the lens.
