- Summary
- In this book, seventeen of these masters of photography are presented together. Each stands by himself, in the full scope and character of his work, so far as the brief compass of one crowded volume allows; each, in his life history, if he has expressed himself in words, speaks to us of what he did and why and how his own approach, his way of working, and his philosophy toward photography developed.
