Seller's Description:
Fine. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. 121 pages, illustrated with 97 b&w images. "Maritime photography was born and evolved over much of the nineteenth century as an unselfconscious discipline. Many practitioners were engaged in some pursuit related to seaborne activity, either as sailors, shipowners, or within a shoreside business that serviced the maritime trades, such as marine portraiture. Others were amateur historians creating documentary records of vessel types and harbor activity seen within a particular region." FINE SOFTCOVER.
