This is the first book-length exploration of nineteenth-century photography in Washington State. Each chapter features intriguing facts, stories, and images that bring to life this rich part of photographic history from the territory's earliest days to the state's emergence as an economic power in the twentieth century. The book features:
280 pages / 9 chapters
203 photographs & illustrations
Chronological histories by decade
Thematic studies of landscapes, portraits, and images of Native Peoples
In addition to tracing the development of Washington photography in a direct chronological timeline, the author explores key themes that illuminate the social, economic, and physical aspects of the state's growth as seen through dozens of rarely seen photographs. As a latecomer to the Union, Washington and photography matured together. Photographers captured nearly every aspect of the state's social, economic, and physical growth. They also reflected the challenges of bringing the new medium of photography to the remoteness of the Pacific Northwest. Unlike books about Washington's history that are illustrated with photographs, the author writes about how the accomplishments of individual photographers reflected the evolution of the state. As photography evolved from a scientific tool into a communications medium, it turned into a mirror of humanity, reflecting its unique ability to capture an instant in time that ultimately becomes timeless.
