The Joy Of Keeping Chickens: The Ultimate Guide To Raising Poultry For Fun Or Profit
Skyhorse Publishing New York: 2009. Softcover. Brand new book. Finally a bible for backyard farmers that's attractive enough to leave out on the coffee table and inexpensive enough to purchase on a whim. This comprehensive guide written in charming prose from the perspective of an organic farmer will appeal to readers who want to learn more about chickens. Includes an Index. "Vermont organic farmer Megyesi has raised poultry for several years and her book is partially a personal account of her quest to develop a humane production system that addresses chickens' needs and behaviors. She also dutifully meets her other goal of informing potential backyard farmers on the intricacies associated with chicken husbandry. In addition to providing information on equipment housing facilities and breeds found in a typical handbook Megyesi goes into great detail on how to raise chickens on a small scale defining terms like organic and free-range discussing health issues and even offering advice on showing chickens. Each chapter includes sidebars of additional tips which are indexed for easy reference as well as beautiful photographs accompanied by detailed descriptions. The easy-to-read prose makes this ideal for beginners; the book also includes resources and material for longtime chicken producers. Also provided are recipes for the eggs and meat that are produced. Megyesi's versatile book can accommodate several production management styles beyond her own experience. An excellent resource that provides a compassionate way to raise livestock for personal use this is strongly recommended for public and academic libraries." - Kyrille Goldbeck Library Journal Skyhorse Publishing, New York: 2009 paperback

BEHDAD ALI & GARTLAN LUKE EDITORS
Photography's Orientalism: New Essays On Colonial Representation
Getty Research Institute Los Angeles: 2013. Softcover. Brand new book. The Middle East played a critical role in the development of photography as a new technology and an art form. Likewise photography was instrumental in cultivating and maintaining Europe's distinctively Orientalist vision of the Middle East. As new advances enhanced the versatility of the medium nineteenth-century photographers were able to mass-produce images to incite and satisfy the demands of the region's burgeoning tourist industry and the appetites of armchair travelers in Europe. In this way the evolution of modern photography fueled an interest in visual contact with the rest of the world. Photography's Orientalism offers the first in-depth cultural study of the works of European and non-European photographers active in the Middle East and India focusing on the relationship between photographic literary and historical representations of this region and beyond. The essays explore the relationship between art and politics by considering the connection between the European presence there and aesthetic representations produced by traveling and resident photographers thereby contributing to how the history of photography is understood. 7 x 10 inches 27 color and 45 black and white illustrations 2 line drawings. Ali Behdad is John Charles Hillis Professor of Literature and chair of the English Department at the University of California Los Angeles. His books include Belated Travelers: Orientalism in the Age of Colonial Dissolution Duke 1994 and A Forgetful Nation: On Immigration and Cultural Identity in the United States Duke 2005. Luke Gartlan is a lecturer in the School of Art History at the University of St Andrews Scotland. His recent publications include "'Bronzed and Muscular Bodies': Jinrikishas Tattooed Bodies and Yokohama Photography" in Transculturation in British Art 1770 -1930 Ashgate 2012. He is also editor designate 2013 -14 of the journal History of Photography. "Nineteenth-century Indian photographers made portraits that borrow heavily from the conventions of Mughal miniatures. Early 20th-century Indian photographers did not wince from shooting graphic images of pro-independence protestors shot down by British Army rifles in demonstrations. And most interesting of all this book is full of wonderful Ottoman photos�portraits journalism and magnificent panoramic landscapes that are essentially documents of empire attesting to the depth breadth and ethnic variety of the Sultan's domains." -- Art & Antiques Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles: 2013 paperback

PHOTOGRAPHY ALBUM
The American West and Tobacco Growing.
V.p.: N.p. ca. 1925. Vintage album bearing about 210 original silver gelatin photographs. Mounted with corners no glue. Size is generally 2 1/2 x 4 inches but with a number of larger photographs. This album was done by or for Miss Edith Harvey. She is featured in many of the photographs. Most if not all of the images are captioned in white ink. The album opens with about 70 photographs of her visit out West. These include numerous photographs of Yellowstone Yosemite Portland Seattle Lake Louise and Banff. At the end of this section we find more personal shot of Edith and many of these reflect agricultural interests. E.g; Edith sitting on five hundred bags of barley on the banks of the Sacramento; irrigating pumps at Lodi California; two fine shots of a California gold dredger; tractor and harvester at Linden California. Next is a series of professional photographs of places she had visited largely the same areas and a series of glued-in magazine photographs. Finally there is a large section at the rear with about 150 original photographs that show Edith in her home state of North Carolina. There is one shot of Edith and Mr & Mrs Albert Franics in front of a car with a license that dates it to 1924 at Bear Mountain Bridge when it was new. There are eight photographs of tobacco farming including two with a farmer taking his oad of leaf to market with a horse and buggy. There are ten photographs of cotton being picked and taken to market some with African-American subjects. There is one photograph entited "Darky Shack" that show an African-American familt n the porch of their house. Apparently Miss Harvey was quite the hardy soul; she drove herself she camped alone two photographs and she lived alone. There is some historical record of an Edith Harvey in North Carolina but she might have been a snowbird with a cottage in Florida three photographs. Flexible black leather album with black pages Some wear to binding and a section of loose pages easy to repair. A very interesting album. N.p. hardcover

PHOTOGRAPHY: ROYAL SYLWANDER Hermann Ludwig photographer
Private Photograph Album of the Swedish Royal Family.
Stockholm: Atelier Jaeger 1914. An exquisite photograph album of the Swedish Royal Family no doubt intended for their private use. Folio 11 x 14 inches. With eighteen leaves each bearing an original silver gelatin photograph of a member of the royal family. Each photograph with its own tissue guard. Original crocodile-patterned suede with a purple hue front cover with a crown and the year 1914 in gilt gilt board edges marlbed endpapers in a gold pattern all edges gilt. A wonderful piece of history luxuriously presented. The portraits are excellent. The King of Sweden at the time was Gustav V and it his his portrait that opens the album. He is dressed in full military regalia. The next portrait is of his wife Queen Victoria. Followed by the future Kind gustve VI Oscar Fredrik Wilhelm Olaf Gustaf Adolf though the Crown Prince at this date. His portrait is followed by theat of his wife Crown Princess Margaret of Connaught. She is dressed in traditional Swedish costume. Following the Crown Price and Princess are wonderful and natural photographs of their children; Gustaf Sigvard Ingrid and Bertil. Then follows photographs of the King's brothers Prince Oscar Carl August Bernadotte Prince Carl and Prince Eugen. There are three photographs of an obviously beloved niece but we have not been able to identify her. The last photograph is that of Queen Victoria of England. Given the blatant luxuriousness of this album and the fact that we can find no other copies of any of these images it seems logical to deem this a personal photograph album. Atelier Jeager were the photographers of choice for many royal families at this time. Johannes Jaeger was a successful photographer who in 1863 moved from Berlin to Stockholm to pursue professional photography. In 1865 he was appointed Royal Court Photographer. In 1890 Johannes Jaeger sold the studio to Valentin Wolfenstein. After Wolfenstein left the company in 1905 the new owner Albin Roosval employed Herman Sylwander as chief photographer. He took over the entire business in 1908 and ran it until his death 1948. It was during Sylwander's time that the studio focused on portrait photography. The year 1914 was a seminal one for King Gustav V. After the Liberals won a massive landslide in 1911 Gustav appointed Liberal leader Karl Staaff as Prime Minister. However during the runup to World War I the elites objected to Staaff's defense policy. In February 1914 a large crowd of farmers gathered at the royal palace and demanded that the country's defenses be strengthened. In his reply the so-called Courtyard Speech Gustav promised to strengthen the country's defenses. Staaff was outraged telling the king parliamentary rule called for the Crown to stay out of partisan politics. He was also angered that he had not been consulted in advance of the speech. However Gustav retorted that he had the right "communicate freely with the Swedish people." The Staaff government resigned in protest and Gustav appointed a civil servant government headed by Hjalmar Hammarskjšld father of Dag Hammarskjšld in its place. To date it is the last time that a Swedish king directly intervened in the governing of the country. He ruled until 1950 and is generally credited with keeping Sweden neutral for both World Wars.

PNICHON SYLVIE
Twentieth-century Color Photographs: Identification And Care
Getty Conservation Institute Los Angeles: 2013. Softcover. Brand new book. With the advent of digital imaging the era of traditional color photography is coming to an end. Yet more than 150 years after the invention of color photography museums archives and personal collections are full of images to be cherished studied and preserved. These photographs often made with processes and materials no longer used or easily identified constitute an important part of the cultural and artistic heritage of the twentieth century. Today it is more important than ever to capture the technical understanding of the processes that created these irreplaceable images. In providing an accessible overview of the history and technology of the major traditional color photographic processes this abundantly illustrated volume promises to become the standard reference in its field. Following an introductory chapter on color photography in the nineteenth century seven uniformly structured chapters discuss the most commercially or historically significant processes of the twentieth century�additive color screen pigment dye imbibition dye coupling dye destruction dye diffusion and dye mordanting and silver toning�offering readers a user-friendly guide to materials methods of identificationand common kinds of deterioration. A final chapter presents specific guidelines for collection management storage and preservation. There is also a glossary of technical terms along with appendixes presenting detailed chronologies for Kodachrome and Ektachrome transparencies Cibachrome/Ilfochrome printing materials and Instant films. This book will interest instructors and students in classroom settings; conservators registrars curators archivists and collection caretakers; and anyone else concerned with the long-term preservation of color photographs. Sylvie Pnichon is a conservator of photographs at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth. She has published widely in conservation and photography journals. 8 x 10 inches 375 color and 70 black and white illustrations. Getty Conservation Institute, Los Angeles: 2013 paperback

Other photos are of Herbert who worked in the northwest in mines the sawmills he ran a gas station in New Mexico and was a farmer in Bastrup County TX. In 1930 the census lists his occupation as "watchman" so he appears to have picked up whatever jobs he could to support his family. The annotations on the photos also indicate that Herbert lost his right hand in an accident with mining machinery so his prospects may have been limited.Family history holds that this family was related to Hugh Cameron who became known as the "Kansas Hermit." Since Hugh does not seem to have ever married it may well be one of his brothers. According to various biographies he was the third of six boys and two girls born to Allen and Catherine Frazier Cameron in New York state. Allen was born in Scotland but it is unclear whether Catherine was also or whether she was born in New York. We have been unable to locate the information on all of the siblings but the idea that one or more of them followed Hugh to Kansas is almost a certainty. We have also been unable to find a first name on "Judge Cameron" pictured in the album - presumably one of Hugh's brothers.Hugh Cameron 1826-1908 "The Kansas Hermit" was an abolitionist Civil War officer judge and founder and resident of Lawrence KS known for his eccentric behavior. Originally from upstate New York he was teaching math in Washington DC when he was fired for espousing his "radical" anti-slavery views so he decided to walk to Kansas to settle and have his voice and vote heard during the Border War period of the 1850s. Connections from Washington secured him an appointment as a territorial judge and he used his power to counteract the "Ruffians" promoting slavery in the state. When the Civil War broke out Cameron enlisted and received a commission as a first lieutenant in Co. F 2nd Kansas Cavalry and was promoted to captain by the end of the year. He was made lieutenant colonel of the 2nd Arkansas Cavalry Union in February 1864 eventually being promoted to brevet brigadier general for meritorious service. After the war Cameron's eccentricities began to emerge. Despite his status as a former judge and military hero with connections in the federal government he began living in a hollowed out tree in Lawrence and eschewed the social norms of the time. One report holds that this was the result of being "spurned by Mary Phelps a Missouri woman." Lawrence Journal-World May 27 2001. The Kansas Hermit usually emerged for some spectacular purpose such as walking to Santa Fe NM to deliver a letter of apology to the people of the state for Kansas Sen. Edmund Ross casting the vote which prevented President Andrew Johnson from being convicted at his impeachment trial. He later said that the purpose of "burying himself in the woods" was to emulate the life of the prophets in the hope that he would receive "visions." N.p. unknown

COLTON HAROLD ESSAYS; BREED JACK PHOTOGRAPHY
Hopi Kachina Dolls With A Key To Their Identification
University of New Mexico Press Albuquerque. Softcover. Brand new book. A Hopi Indian will tell you that a kachina is a supernatural being who is impersonated by a man wearing a mask. Small wooden dolls carved in the likenesses of the various kachinas are used to help teach Hopi children the tribal religion and traditions. Each child receives a doll made especially for him by his male relatives. He treasures the doll and studies it so that he can learn to recognize and respect the host of spirit kachinas that people the Hopi world. Kachinas are difficult to classify because different Hopi pueblos have different ideas about their appearance and their functions. The late Dr. Harold S. Colton identified 266 different kinds of kachina dolls and in this book he describes the meaning the making and the principal features of all of them. Each type of doll is pictured in a simplified line drawing. There is also an illustrated key to help the collector identify the various types. 6.125 x 9.125 in. 160 pages 226 drawings 33 halftones "The most comprehensive study to date on the Indian deities." -- El Paso Times "After even a cursory glance at the book you will yearn for a kachina of your own." -- Midwestern Banker "Of prime importance to collectors and all others wishing to distinguish the genuine Hopi work from the spurious dolls." -- The Book Exchange "Collectors and museum curators will welcome the revised edition of this book. It remains the best single listing of Kachintihu available."-- American Anthropologist University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque paperback

PLAIN NANCY
Light On The Prairie: Solomon D. Butcher Photographer Of Nebraska's Pioneer Days
University of Nebraska Press Lincoln: 2012. Softcover. Brand new book. Once President Lincoln signed the Homestead Act of 1862 which granted 160 acres of free land to anyone with the grit to farm it for five years the rush to the Great Plains was on. Solomon D. Butcher was there to document it amassing more than three thousand photographs and compiling the most complete record of the sod house era ever made. Butcher 1856-1927 staked his claim on the plains in 1880. He didn't like farming but he found another way to thrive. He had learned the art of photography as a teenager and he began taking pictures of his friends and neighbors. Butcher noticed how fast the vast land was "settling up" so he formed the plan that would become his life's work�to record the frontier days in words and images. Alongside sixty-two of Butcher's iconic photographs Light on the Prairie conveys the irrepressible spirit of a man whose passion would give us a firsthand look at the men and women who settled the Great Plains. Like his subjects Butcher was a pioneer even though he held a camera more often than a plow. University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln: 2012 paperback

LYDEN ANNE M. WITH CONTRIBUTIONS BY SOPHIE GORDON AND JENNIFER GREEN LEWIS
A Royal Passion: Queen Victoria And Photography
J. Paul Getty Museum Los Angeles: 2014. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. In January 1839 photography was announced to the world. Two years prior a young Queen Victoria ascended to the throne of Great Britain and Ireland. These two events while seemingly unrelated marked the beginnings of a relationship that continued throughout the nineteenth century and helped construct the image of an entire age. A Royal Passion explores the connections between photography and the monarchy through Victoria's embrace of the new medium and her portrayal through the lens. Together with Prince Albert her beloved husband the Queen amassed one of the earliest collections of photographs including works by renowned photographers such as Roger Fenton Gustave Le Gray and Julia Margaret Cameron. Victoria was also the first British monarch to have her life recorded by the camera: images of her as wife mother widow and empress proliferated around the world at a time when the British Empire spanned the globe. The featured essays consider Victoria's role in shaping the history of photography as well as photography's role in shaping the image of the Queen. Including more than 150 color images�several rarely seen before�drawn from the Royal Collection and the J. Paul Getty Museum this volume accompanies an exhibition of the same name on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from February 4 to June 20 2014. Anne M. Lyden is international photography curator at the National Galleries of Scotland Edinburgh and former associate curator in the Department of Photographs at the J. Paul Getty Museum Los Angeles. She is curator of the exhibition A Royal Passion: Queen Victoria and Photography and has written about nineteenth-century photography including The Photographs of Frederick Evans Getty Publications 2010 and Railroad Vision: Photography Travel and Perception Getty Publications 2003. Sophie Gordon is senior curator of photographs at the Royal Collection Windsor. Jennifer Green-Lewis is associate professor of English literature at George Washington University Washington D.C. 9 1/2 x 11 1/2 inches 120 color and 43 black and white illustrations. J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles: 2014 hardcover
