Book Description:
|
Despite his status as a seminal figure in modern photography, Edward Steichen's pivotal role in adapting the camera for military purposes in World War I has been overlooked by both military and cultural historians. This book vividly reconstructs Steichen's service in World War I in what might be described as his 'lost years'.
