Inhoud:

A comprehensive investigation of the origin, development, and practices of 19th-century American photograph albums. It argues that the album - whether functioning as family record, parlour entertainment, national portrait gallery, or advertisement for photography itself - helped transform the nature of self-presentation at the cusp of modernity.
