Book The Man who Photographed the World

Download or read book The Man who Photographed the World written by Burton Holmes and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 1977 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In an era before television and air travel, Burton Holmes -- "The Travelogue Man" as he called himself -- was for many people the only window on the world. Single-handed, he brought the glamour and excitement of foreign lands to Americans unable to go themselves. That excitement is re-created in this magnificent album of his photographs, accompanied by his own writings. Burton Holmes purchased his first camera in 1883, and began a love affair with photography that lasted throughout his 88 years. Almost equaling his passion to capture life on film was a desire to travel, to seek out and record novel experiences. In order to pay for his journeys, Holmes created the travelogue, a spectacle in words and pictures that played to full houses in city after city, attracting both sophisticates and provincials. When Burton Holmes came to town, usually engaging the best theater or concert hall for a week at a time, everyone went to see his magical slides and hear his enthralling lectures. His travelogues were the grand events of the season. This book shows why: no mere sunsets over Pago-Pago, his photographs are powerful observations of life on the move, of people and drama, of history in the making. In his long career, he traveled to nearly every country on the globe. He rode the Trans-Siberian Railroad across Russia while they were still laying the track. He was in Naples in 1906, and recorded Vesuvius' most devastating eruption in modern times. He covered the building of the Panama Canal, the Russo-Japanese War, the Boxer Rebellion in China. Holmes not only brought these and other events to American audiences, he even presented them in color. In the 1890s, his 3 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch glass slides were exquisitely hand-painted in watercolor by a team of Japanese artists. In later years the painting was done in the United States by artists personally trained by Holmes, work so fine that single-hair ermine brushes had to be used. The results were astonishingly realistic, as can be seen in the full-color reproductions. For the travel buff, the photographer, the historian, this is a book to delight the eye and mind."--

Book excerpt: An editor at This American Life reveals the searing story of the secret binge-eating that dominated her adolescence and shapes her still. “Her tale of compulsion and healing is candid and powerful.”—People NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY MARIE CLAIRE For almost thirty years, Susan Burton hid her obsession with food and the secret life of compulsive eating and starving that dominated her adolescence. This is the relentlessly honest, fiercely intelligent story of living with both anorexia and binge-eating disorder, moving past her shame, and learning to tell her secret. When Burton was thirteen, her stable life in suburban Michigan was turned upside down by her parents’ abrupt divorce, and she moved to Colorado with her mother and sister. She seized on this move west as an adventure and an opportunity to reinvent herself from middle-school nerd to popular teenage girl. But in the fallout from her parents’ breakup, an inherited fixation on thinness went from “peculiarity to pathology.” Susan entered into a painful cycle of anorexia and binge eating that formed a subterranean layer to her sunny life. She went from success to success—she went to Yale, scored a dream job at a magazine right out of college, and married her college boyfriend. But in college the compulsive eating got worse—she’d binge, swear it would be the last time, and then, hours later, do it again—and after she graduated she descended into anorexia, her attempt to “quit food.” Binge eating is more prevalent than anorexia or bulimia, but there is less research and little storytelling to help us understand it. In tart, soulful prose Susan Burton strikes a blow for the importance of this kind of narrative and tells an exhilarating story of longing, compulsion and hard-earned self-revelation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ....Pyro... 1 to 2 grains according to subject Ammonia 2 minims Bromide H minims To each ounce of developer. This is a very slow developer, and even if the plate be much over-exposed, the image will not appear for some time. A little experiment will enable the photographer to know whether the plate has been over-exposed, correctly exposed, or under-exposed by the length of time which elapses between the time of pouring on the deveioper and the appearance of the image. If the exposure appear to be correct, let one minim of ammonia be added to bring the strength up to that recommended. If it appear to be over-exposed, let development proceed, or even add more bromide. If the image be very long of appearing, showing that there has been under-exposure, ammonia may be added to any amount short of that which will produce fog. Good plates should stand ten minims of ammonia with one and a-half grains of bromide. The greater the quantity of bromide, the larger the amount of ammonia that may be used; but the quantity of ammonia permissible is not proportionate to the bromide used. Doubling the quantity of bromide will not permit double the quantity of ammonia to be added. With the ferrous oxalate developer, under-exposure and over-exposure may be corrected to a certain extent, but not so greatly as with the alkaline developer. The developer may be accelerated by the addition of any quantity up to ten minims of a 1 per eent. solution of hyposulphite of soda to each ounce of developer, or retarded by the increase of bromide. It is commonly said that there is difficulty with gelatine plates in getting a sufficiently dense image. Such a difficulty results from ignorance of the principles of development. The secret of getting "plucky" negatives...
