The World of William Notman: The Nineteenth Century Through a Master Lens

"Long acknowledged as the giant of 19th-century Canadian photography, William Notman, his sons, and his protegés have been celebrated in at least two major books that display the amazing fecundity and vitality" of their enterprise. . . . As the authors clearly demonstrate in this stunning book, Notman's ambition did not expire at the Canadian border but continued well into the United States. . . ." Included are Notman's photos of Sitting Bull, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and 19th-century Ivy League architecture. The book is "impeccably printed by the Stinehour Press in 300-line duotone on a heavy acid-free sheet and bound in full cloth. . . ."--the publisher.
