Hodgson, Pat. EARLY WAR PHOTOGRAPHS. 50 YEARS OF WAR PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE NINETEENTH CENTURY.
Nwe York Graphic Society, Boston, 1974.
159 pp, large 8vo (9 7/8" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0821206303 B&w photographs. "Photojournalism on the battlefield began almost immediately upon the invention of the camera. Working with cumbersome and unreliable equipment, the first w ar photographers recorded, to extraordinary effect and free from the bias of drawn and written accounts, realities of combat, of camp life, the march, and the besieged town. These photographic documents were a revelation to a newspaper audience a c c ustomed to the adventury-story viewpoint of the sketch-pad artists who had previously accompanied war correspondents. This book contains photographs of military subjects from the wars of the nineteenth century: they include the Crimean War, t he A me rican Civil War, and the Franco-Prussian and Boer Wars (among others). Each picture is fully described, with information on the action depicted and details of the earliest publication of the picture. The text discusses the leading photo gr aph ers , t heir equipment and methods, and the conditions under which they worked - including the emergence of fakes and propaganda pictures and the attitudes of army authorities to the new observers in their midst." Book slightly cracked at pa ges 14/ 15, slig ht cracking at inside hinges, book lightly cocked, slight browning at edges of text blocks. Dust jacket has light edge wrinkling, light rubbing, line indentation down spine, one small corner crease on rear flap. Very Good-/Very G ood-
