More remarkable, those men and women who could never have written a word for themselves - the peasants on a great Irish estate in the eighteenth century, the newly-conquered inhabitants of Trinidad - have recorded their lives here in pictures which, as Leslie Stephen commented, are as fresh as if they were taken yesterday.
