96 pages, illustrations, 69 plates; 28 cm. Photography, Men and Movements Series, volume 2. Firm binding, clean text. Previous owner's blind stamp/half-title page, otherwise unmarked. Age toning. Stated First Collier Books Edition. *** "William H. Fox Talbot was a great pioneer photographer, whose pictures taken by sunlight predated the early methods of his contemporary, Daguerre. The illuminating introduction examines the mancy-faceted Talbot and his great contributions to photography; also included are previously unpublished writings by Talbot on his many experiments. The seventy illustrations -- showing the wide range and variety of his work -- are printed superbly in gravure, some in black, and some in color to reproduce in facsimile effect the varied results achieved by Talbot on different kinds of paper." - Publisher.
