For this fifth edition of the book the text was completely revised and expanded, and well over half of the photographs were newly selected from collections on this country and abroad.
Using more than three hundred works by such master photographers as Talbot, Hill & Adamson, O’Sullivan, Cameron, Atget, Emerson, Stieglitz, Strand, Weston, Lange, Evans, Adams Brassaï, Cartier-Bresson, Callahan, Frank, and Arbus, the author presents a fascinating, comprehensive study of the significant trends and developments in the medium since the first photographs were made in 1939. And the fifth edition of The History of Photography includes photographs made in color, from hand-tinted daguerreotypes of 1850 to turn-of-the-century autochromes by Steichen to works by such contemporary masters as Eliot Porter, Ernst Haas, William Eggleston, Stephen Shore, and Joel Meyerowitz.
The fifth edition of this internationally acclaimed book has been translated into five languages."
