Frank Hurley Poradie kníh
Frank Hurley bol dobrodruh a fotograf, ktorého životné dielo spočíva v zachytení extrémnych podmienok a ľudskej odolnosti. Jeho raná práca zahŕňala priekopnícke expedície do Antarktídy, kde svojimi objektívmi dokumentoval drsné polárne prostredie a odvahu prieskumníkov. Počas prvej svetovej vojny sa stal oficiálnym austrálskym vojnovým fotografom, riskoval život, aby zachytil hrôzy zákopovej vojny vo Francúzsku, Palestíne a Káhire. Hurleyho fotografie, opisované ako „bojové zbrane“, nielenže informovali, ale aj inšpirovali, a jeho celoživotné odhodlanie prinášať snímky z najnehostinnejších kútov sveta z neho robia jedinečnú postavu v histórii dokumentárnej fotografie.
