Ex Camera 1860-1960: Photographs from the Collections of the National Library of Ireland

Ex Camera 1860-1960: Photographs from the Collections of the National Library of Ireland is a visually rewarding survey of photographic heritage, bringing together images from a full century of Irish history. Edited by Noel Kissane, the book presents a rich selection of historical photographs that document people, places, daily life and social change, making it attractive both as a visual object and as a documentary resource.

This is the kind of book that appeals to readers of photography, Irish history, archives and visual culture. Beyond its image selection, it also benefits from the curatorial authority of the National Library of Ireland, giving the volume institutional credibility and lasting reference value.

For collectors of photography books or readers interested in historic photographs, Ireland and visual memory, this title is a very appealing acquisition. Elegant, informative and increasingly uncommon, Ex Camera 1860-1960 is a strong addition to any shelf devoted to photography, cultural history or library and archive publications.
