Naked City by Weegee

Nobody captured the seamy side of new York City better than the photographer Weegee, who used to cruise the streets of the Big Apple in the 1940s with a police radio in his car, often beating the cops to the scene of a gangland slaying or transvestite club bust. he also used infrared film to snap picks of people making out and picking their noses in movie houses, and had a special lens that could take pictures at a 90 degree angle to keep his subjects from knowing. This book has over a hundred of Weegee's best shots.
