Photography – the definitive visual history
A gorgeous volume for any photography lover. 400 pages of scrumptious images, some you’ll know and love, some you’ll not have seen before.
A good book for inspiration and ideas. We analyse masterpeices. We give the history of crucial technology. We tell little-known stories about photographers and their work.
Some very warm reviews:

- “I was shocked on how much I love this book.”
- “There are few reference books that I read cover to cover. I could not put this book down. ”
- “A reader could spend many months perusing its informative and visually powerful content.”
- “… this is the only history of photography book you’ll ever need. ”
Digital Photographer’s Handbook
Huge sales over the years, in over 20 languages, and still selling strong. It’s been through an amazing 6 editions, so it’s virtually a completely re-written book and well up to date.
Ideal for beginners, it’s full of help, advice, project inspiration and even advice for study and photography business start up. An excellent grounding for photography, it’s recommended by many course tutors.
