comprehensive, theoretically informed, historical overview of
Bloomsbury photography. The book will enthrall many, with its
inclusion of hitherto unpublished images, and will enhance

photography and her catalogue of the Monk's House Albums is here
included. A real feast of a book."--Frances Spalding"art historian
