The captivating book traces the true story of a solitary English scientist, Henry Fox Talbot, and his flamboyant French rival, the showman and entrepreneur Louis Daguerre. Both men invented methods of photography that would illuminate the 1830s and solve one of the world's oldest problems: how to capture an image, and keep it for ever.
Only one question remains: which man got there first?
