Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from To the Four Corners: The Memoirs of a News Photographer This book reveals in a most entertaining way, as I am sure all its readers will acknowledge, the professional experiences of that modern type of adventurer, the Press photographer. So far, as a type, he has not been given the credit due to him for his extraordinary service to the public, strangely incurious of the way in which the pictures which record every incident of the drama of our times in all parts of the world, in war and peace, are produced by the man behind the camera. He must have been there, very close, at the very tick of time, when some sensational episode of history was for a moment enacted, or when some famous figure passed. Now and again to get some picture of riot or revolution, fire, or shipwreck, or earthquake, he must have taken great risks. His pitch is only a few yards away from the heart of danger. Time does not stand still for him nor pageantry pause while he adjusts his camera. How does he get the front place always when these things happen? By what magic does he get his pictures to his newspaper from far places so that his million eyed public may see the events of yesterday on the morning´s breakfast-table?
