by Sennett, Robert S.
New York / London: Garland Publishing, Inc, 1985. Hardcover. VG (May be ex-art library with spine label, marks on front cover, i.d. marks on book block edges and rear inside cover; otherwise quite crisp and clean.). Black cloth with white lettering; 134 pp.; No illustrations. This bibliography includes these sections: General Works, Early Technical Treatises, Early Theoretical Treatises, Monographs on Photographers, and Early Views and Topographic Surveys. "It is not a comprehensive bibliography; such a list would run to a ridiculous number of volumes and include much which is totally useless to the present-day reader. It is selective -- a concise compilation of those titles which deserve recollection because they are groundbreaking, or particularly influential, or of historical importance, or rare, or of especial literary merit. Also included are works published in the twentieth century by the historians or the art which are of interest to the photographic archivist, student, and collector." (intro).
