Synopsis

First War Photos explores the dawn of war photography, examining how early photographic technology captured 19th-century warfare and shaped public perception. It delves into the challenges faced by pioneers like Roger Fenton during the Crimean War and Mathew Brady during the American Civil War, revealing how their images, despite technical limitations, brought the battlefield to the home front. These first war photos, though sometimes staged, marked a significant shift in war reporting. The book investigates the evolution of photographic processes, from daguerreotypes to wet plate collodion, and their impact on documenting military history. It highlights how these images altered the relationship between the public and armed conflict. Through meticulous examination of primary sources and photographic analysis, the book progresses from an introduction covering photography's pre-war state to chapters focusing on specific conflicts and photographers, culminating in a conclusion assessing the long-term impact and ethical implications of early war photography.

The Authentic Actor - The Art...

Michael Laskin

“The Authentic Actor – the Art and Business of Being Yourself” illuminates for today’s actors the skills, strategies, and mental approach to navigating the intersection of art and commerce. It’s the culmination of Michael Laskin’s over forty years in the profession, and thousands of hours of classroom work and private coaching. Today’s “Authentic Actor” is someone who has successfully merged their highly developed talent with their fully examined identity. Unfortunately, being talented is no longer enough. Talent is just the “price of admission” in a marketplace where, at the professional level, nearly everyone is talented. Defining, refining, and understanding your indelibility as an actor, your “blink-of-an-eye” factor is key. Marrying that with highly developed traditional skills is the portal to success and artistry. It's not just show business....it's human business.

Small Broke and Kind of Dirty -...

Hana Shafi

Let's get one thing straight: Small, Broke, and Kind of Dirty: Affirmations for the Real World is not a book of advice. You're not going to find a step-by-step guide to meditation here, or even reminders to drink lots of water and get enough sleep. Those things are all good for you, but that's not what Hana Shafi wants to talk about.
Instead, Small, Broke, and Kind of Dirty—built around art from Shafi's popular online affirmation series—focuses on our common and never-ending journey of self-discovery. It explores the ways in which the world can all too often wear us down, and reminds us to remember our worth, even when it's hard to do so. Drawing on her experience as a millennial woman of colour, and writing with humour and a healthy dose of irreverence, Shafi delves into body politics and pop culture, racism and feminism, friendship, and allyship. Through it all, she remains positive without being saccharine, and hopeful without being naive.
So no, this is not an advice book: it's a call to action, one that asks us to remember that we are valid as we are—flaws and all—and to not let the bastards grind us down.
