Books about war and the pictures that came out of conflict usually
concentrate on the picture content. But behind every picture there
is a camera - and that's what this book is about. Profusely
illustrated throughout with pictures of the cameras, rather than
the pictures they took, it looks at 100 years of conflict from the
Crimean War to the Korean War. It begins in the days when a
photographer needed to be more of a scientist than an artist, such
were the difficulties of shooting and processing any photograph. It
ends with the cameras whose compact dimensions, versatility and
ease of use meant that photographers could largely forget the
science and concentrate on the art. Some cameras simply recorded
events. Others defined and changed the way those events proceeded.
These were the cameras that went to war, and this is their story.
