Book excerpt: As photography became an increasingly accessible medium in the twentieth century, the popularity of the photographic album exploded, yielding a wonderful range of objects made for varying purposesto memorialize, document (officially or unofficially), promote, or educate, and sometimes simply to channel creative energy. Photographic Memory: The Album in the Age of Photography traces the rise of the album from the turn of the century to the present day, showcasing some of the most important examples in the history of the medium, as collected by the Library of Congress. The albums that comprise Photographic Memory provide an immensely personal and idiosyncratic historical perspective through the many lenses of these unique objects. From an Alaskan expedition album of Edward Sheriff Curtiss early work, to Walker Evanss extended suite of images in study for Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, to a family album by Danny Lyon, this beautifully produced book provides an in-depth look at the history of photography through the handmade objects of some its most famous practitioners, much of which is previously unpublished. The book includes works by photographers and filmmakers such as F. Holland Day, Jim Goldberg, Dorothea Lange, Duane Michals, Leni Riefenstahl, and W. Eugene Smith alongside lesser-known, yet significant albums on subjects as varied as African American vaudeville, the 1915 Jerusalem locust plague, and the folkways of Spain. Each album, beautifully reproduced over numerous spreads, is accompanied by a detailed explanatory text. An insightful history of the album format is included, as well as an informative essay about caring for and restoring albums. At a time when the physical collection of photographs is becoming largely immaterial through digital means, Photographic Memory is a comprehensive illustrated history of a form of presentation that became an art form in itselfa history that has seen radical shifts in the role of handmade artists objects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I cannot go anywhere in America without people wanting to share their wartime experiences....The stories and the lessons have emerged from long-forgotten letters home, from reunions of old buddies and outfits, from unpublished diaries and home-published memoirs....As the stories in this album of memories remind us, it truly was an American experience, from the centers of power to the most humble corners of the land.” —Tom Brokaw In this beautiful American family album of stories from the Greatest Generation, the history of life as it was lived during the Depression and World War II comes alive and is preserved in people’s own words. Photographs and time lines also commemorate important dates and events. An Army Air Corps veteran who enlisted in 1941 at age seventeen writes to describe the Bataan Death March. A black nurse tells of her encounter with wartime segregation. Other members of the Greatest Generation describe their war—in such historic episodes as Guadalcanal, the D-Day invasion, the Battle of the Bulge, and Midway—as well as their lives on the home front. Starting with the Depression and Pearl Harbor, moving on through the war years in Europe, in the Pacific, and at home, this unique book preserves a people’s rich historical heritage and the legacy of a nation’s heroism in war and its courage in peace—in the shaping of their lives and of the world we have today.

Book excerpt: The age of innocence is that period between 1945 and 1965. World War II has just ended, and thousands of servicemen are returning from home. Some, as in the case of Frank Stoneman, are returning home to wives and children they have not seen for more than three years. Frank, Thelma, and Earl live in a small house in Pasadena when Bruce arrives on the scene. The family moves to nearby Azusa, and a third son, Jack, makes his debut. Thelma has kept a photo album for each of the three boys. Bruce has brought his album out and is reminiscing about what it was like living when there were no smartphones, computers, or digital clouds. Earl, in an iron-lung, fights Polio and Bruce and his faithful companion, the accordion. Jack has his push-cart made from old lumber and wheels lying around. When Frank and the family went to view their new home and accidentally forgot the new baby, Bruce, and had to go back to retrieve him. Ever the adventurer, Bruce accepted a challenge to walk fifty miles in one day. And who can forget the camping trip when Bruce informed his family that his brothers were dead. Pictures are worth a thousand words, and here are the words Bruce's pictures tell from the early beginnings of his family to his enlistment in the Navy after high school.
