I just read an "autobiography" of Capa, called something like "Slightly out
of Focus".  It makes for great reading of Capa's WW2 adventures, until you
read the liner notes that claim that the book was originally written as a
possible screen play, and that Capa made no attempt to be historically
accurate, to put it mildly.
