Una piccola dedica ms. alla prima carta bianca. Una minuscola mancanza al margine della sovracoperta del piatto anteriore peraltro ottimo stato di conservazione. Prima edizione ricercata e ormai poco reperibile di uno dei più celebri libri fotografici italiani del '900 straordinaria documentazione visiva sul paese natio di Zavattini Luzzara in provincia di Reggio Emilia e sulla sua pittoresca umanità. Narra Zavattini: Nel 1954 il famoso fotografo e cineasta americano Paul Strand venne a Roma da lontano e disse: Facciamo un libro insieme Lo abbracciai lo portai a Luzzara ve lo lasciai a lungo con i suoi occhi giusti e una macchina antica a treppiede. Fu così che nel 1955 Einaudi pubblicò Un paese. In quell'anno 1955 l'ambiente dei fotografi fu turbato in Italia da altri fatti: la maestosa rassegna The Family of Man curata da Steichen per il Museum of Modern Art di New York e due volumi d'immagini Un paese di Paul Strand e New York di William Klein. Attorno a questi due episodi si coalizzarono le tendenze della nostra fotografia qualcuno trovò anche conferme specialmente in The Family of the Man e in Un paese che cominciò a dimenticare le iniziative autarchiche sia pure sollecitanti come quelle de La Bussola e degli altri circoli per seguire opportunamente le tracce indicate dalle correnti mondiali che potevano ora essere configurate nell'opera di tre maestri: Steinert Strand una lezione di partecipante realismo nella tradizione delle ricerche americane sullo specifico tra gli anni '20 e '30 Klein Zannier 1986 p. 304.

Wherever I happened to be" wrote Paul Strand "I sought the signs of a long partnership that give each place its special quality and create the profiles of its people. . . . " In 1953 the renowned American photographer Paul Strand who was then living in France suggested to Italian screenwriter Cesare Zavattini that they do a book together about a small town in Italy a town that would reveal the spirit of a people.
