Too Young to Die

20th Century Icons that Moved Generations

Birgit Krols

When death strikes unexpectedly, and unfulfilled potential is nipped in the bud, myths are created. This stunningly illustrated book brings a tribute to the lives and work of more than one hundred 20th century celebrities that passed away so prompt. When a star is dead, a legend is born: all the people in this book inspired entire nations during their lives, and attained immortality by dying too soon.
