Well, it may be the HCB book to end all HCB books, but whether it's
"clearly worth the $75 price" charged by Borders, when Amazon is
offering it for $52.50, is another matter entirely. ;-)....

The March issue of Vanity Fair contains an interview with Henri as well
as some of his photos and several photos of him. He also reveals why he
abhors being photographed.

I just got back from Borders Books where I found and purchased "Henri
Cartier-Bresson And The Artless Art", a sumptuous book containing a
countless number of his photographs accompanied by detailed analyses of
them by the author, Jean-Pierre Montier. In my mind, the book's 328
pages are clearly worth the $75 price. There is much an amateur
photographer can learn about composition upon studying Henri's
photographs.
