Résumé:

A Century of history is registered in this book as the author looks at photographers, photographs and photographic equipment in New Zealand since the middle of the 19th century. For the first time the very considerable role that photography has played in this country is properly noted and the work of such photographers as Dr Alfred Barker of Christchurch, Alfred Burton of Dunedin, Josiah Martin of Auckland, and James Bragge of Wellington ranked aesthetically and historically with the best known names in world photography.
