The American Image: Photographs from the National Archives, 1860 - 1960

The American Image: Photographs from the National Archives, 1860 - 1960. Published by Pantheon in 1979. The book is in good condition with some obvious signs of wear and age.

"The American Image presents for the first time a selection that shows the range and wealth of the photographic holdings of the National Archives in Washington. More than five million photographs are housed there, covering nearly every facet of American life over the last hundred or so years. While the Archives has been used extensively by photographic researchers and historians, this is the first time a book has been based on the whole collection, illustrating both its historical importance and its aesthetic interest. Staff of the Archives, aided by a group of distinguished photographic historians, have gone through their own holdings and selected 216 pictures, images that constitute a photographic history of one hundred years of American life as well as a fascinating look at the uses to which American photography has been put."
