For the first time ever, in one indispensable book-and-DVD package, the New York Times presents its complete front pages. The book features a selection of 300 front pages covering the most significant events of the past 157 years, along with insightful commentary from the paper’s top contributors; and the accompanying DVDs include every front page published in the history of the Times, from 1851 to today, with links to the full stories on www.nytimes.com.

This stunning and cutting-edge volume provides access to the world as reflected in the Times, from wars and political assassinations to social movements and space exploration. All the news that’s fit to print—or download—can be accessed via this extraordinary collection—which features 16 gatefolds to show the pages at their magnificent full size. Here you can read the headlines and stories that have made history, such as Charles Lindburgh’s trans-Atlantic flight, Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor, Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, and the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

National publicity out of New York.
