In this volume, art historians Anthony W. Lee and Richard Meyer bring different outlooks on photography to their discussions of Weegee. Meyer looks at Weegee's pictures before they were collected and assesses how his practice of tabloid photography was inseparable from his own lowbrow appeal. Lee paints the world of leftist journalism in 1930s and 1940s New York and shows how it shaped the photographer's vision.

Summary:
Almost immediately after the invention of photography, Scottish photographers took their clunky cameras on the road to capture the stories of peoples and communities touched by the forces of British imperialism. For the next thirty years, their journeys would take them far from their homes in the Lowlands to the Canadian wilderness and the treaty ports and rivers of China. ''The Global Flows of Early Scottish Photography'' is about the interplay between these photographers' ambitions and the needs and desires of the people they met. Anthony Lee tracks the work of several famous innovators of the art form, including D.O. Hill and Robert Adamson in Edinburgh; the Scottish immigrants William Notman and Alexander Henderson in Montreal; John Thomson in Hong Kong; and Lai Afong. Lee reveals their pictures in the context of migration and the social impact wrought by worldwide trade and competing nationalisms.
