Hardcover. Condition: New. Orderbook - WWB - SHOT IN ALABAMA: A HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY, 1839-1941 AND A LIST OF PHOTOGRAHERS. Frances Osborn Robb. University of Alabama Press, Tuscaloosa, 2016. Published in association with Alabama Bicentennial Commission, Montgomery. 592 pp. With 156 ills. 26 x 19 cm. LC 2015-50538 ISBN 9780817…318789 In English. Publisher's description: Shot in Alabama by Frances Osborn Robb is a visual and textual narrative of Alabama's photographic history from 1839 to 1941. It describes the phenomenon of photography as practiced in Alabama as a major cultural force, paying close attention to the particular contexts from which each image emerges and the fragments of microhistory that each image documents. Presented chronologically -- from the very first photograph ever taken in the state to the appearance of cameras as commonplace possessions in mid-twentieth-century households -- Robb draws into sharp relief the eras of daguerreotypes, Civil War photography, photographic portraiture at the end of the nineteenth century, urban and rural photography in the early twentieth century, WPA photography during the Great Depression, postcards and tourist photography, and pre-World War II illustrated books and art photographs. Robb also examines a wide spectrum of vernacular photography: Alabama-made photographs of everyday people and places, the photographs that fill dresser drawers and shoeboxes, a vast array of unusual images against which Alabama's more typical iconography can be measured.
