Snapshot: America Discovers the Camera

Photography has been a popular hobby for many years. This book will entertain readers with the history of camera and photography in Europe and the United States in the 19th and 20th centuries. It also shows how photography has been used to bring social problems such as crime, child labor, and historical events into the consciousness of average people. Written by Kenneth Czech, it won the Minnesota Book Award for children's nonfiction in 1997.
