Cover has some wear and soiling. Jacob August Riis May 3 1849 May 26 1914 was a Danish-American social reformer "muckraking" journalist and social documentary photographer. He endorsed the implementation of "model tenements" in New York with the help of humanitarian Lawrence Veiller. Additionally as one of the most famous proponents of the newly practicable casual photography he is considered one of the fathers of photography due to his very early adoption of flash in photography. While living in New York Riis experienced poverty and became a police reporter writing about the quality of life in the slums. He attempted to alleviate the living conditions of poor people by exposing their living conditions to the middle and upper classes. Theodore Roosevelt introduced himself to Riis offering to help his efforts somehow. Upon his 1895 appointment to the presidency of the Board of Commissioners of the New York City Police Department Roosevelt asked Riis to show him nighttime police work. During their first tour the pair found that nine out of ten patrolmen were missing. Riis wrote about this for the next day's newspaper and for the rest of Roosevelt's term the force was more attentive. Roosevelt closed the police-managed lodging rooms in which Riis had suffered during his first years in New York. After reading the exposés Roosevelt was so deeply affected by Riis's sense of justice that he befriended Riis for life later remarking "Jacob Riis whom I am tempted to call the best American I ever knew although he was already a young man when he came hither from Denmark".

Riis, Jacob A.; Alland, Alexander Sr. (Adams, Ansel - Preface)
Jacob A. Riis: Photographer & Citizen
220 pages. Riis "took pictures to document and expose the everyday misery of the despairing and often unseen poor." - from Introduction. "The remarkable journalist and reformer Jacob Riis was the forerunner in America's great tradition of documentary photography. This book brings together for the first time a full selection of Riis's photographs and a detailed account of his extraordinary years with a camera... To Riis, an immigrant struggling to expose human misery in the slums of New York nearly a century ago, such other possibilities as art and self-expression were of no concern. He was a muckraking journalist, to whom fact was the 'mightiest lever', and he took up the camera only because it offered new firepower in his crusade for social justice. Self-taught, he became America's first true journalist-photographer - a pioneer in the use of flash and in obtaining entry to and photographing previously inaccessible slum dwellings." - from dust jacket. "The photographs are direct and penetrating, as raw as the sordid scenes which they so often represent." - Beaumont Newhall, in "History of Photography". Usual library markings. Average wear. Binding sound. A worthy reference copy of this unforgettable compilation. Book
