About this title: History's first amateur photographers lived at the beginning of this century, when photography was just one of many technologies that were dramatically altering the ways people related to themselves and to others. This book contains 89 of the many thousands of images taken by them, or of them by professional photographers. Together with a simple text, their images lead us into an America not our own - but one that we may recognize as part of us still - about 85 years ago.
