The magazine's unrivaled photographers have provided a dazzling breadth of style and textures that make the Platinum Anniversary Collection a book for the ages. There is also a fascinating bonus, a gathering of every LIFE cover that has ever appeared. You can trace the history of our culture as it wends its way through the years. This is truly a collector's edition to cherish for generations.
