Alan Trachtenberg
Reading American Photographs: Images As History, Mathew Brady to Walker Evans
by Hill and Wang (Paperback)

Arranged by battle site and event, each of which is introduced by a brief explanatory essay, the volume offers carefully researched archival information about each image and its photographer. Photographs by Alexander Gardner, Timothy O'Sullivan, and James Gibson are among those included in this thoroughly documented ...
