David Murray
...a more than worthwhile addition
to the history bookshelf...
Synopsis
The first book to present the greatest
photos of the Civil War in the three-dimensional format in which they were
originally taken and meant to be seen, The Civil War in Depth is a landmark
contribution to both photographic history and the ever-popular study of
the Southern rebellion. This remarkable collection of 150 photos includes
the first war action photos ever taken--the shelling of Fort Sumter in
1863--as well as more than a dozen Civil War images never published until
now.
 Card
catalog description
Complete with a stereoscopic viewer that
allows you to see each image in 3-D, The Civil War in Depth explores the
Civil War from an astonishing new perspective, with scenes that come to
life in a way no two-dimensional photograph ever could. Witness the shelling
of Fort Sumter in 1863 - the first war action photograph ever taken. Examine
more than a dozen Civil War photographs that have never been published
until now. View the stoic face of Abraham Lincoln, as well as the slave
pens, the prisons, the wrecked battlefields, and the devastated cities
as they were seen in the nineteenth century. Learn about the art of the
stereo photographer and the often misunderstood history of Civil War photographs.

Iowa
Stereographs: Three-Dimensional Visions of the Past
by Mary Bennett, Paul C. Juhl
 An
excellent book with dozens of stereo historic images of Iowa, featuring
both daily life, historic events, catastrophic events etc. Even if you
are no resident of the US-State of Iowa, this is an excellent book for
your 3D-library as it shows a very wide variety of images of a fairly small
area, which enables historic studies.

World
of Stereographs, The
by William C. Darrah
 "The
World of Stereographs" by William C. Darrah is the definitive work on stereographs.
This reprint edition is an exact reproduction of the limited edition originally
published by the author himself in 1977. This book, intended as a survey
and guide to stereographs, considers them from for points of view: historical,
geographical, topical and by the photographers who produced them. Two checklists
are included: first, the names and locations of 3,500 North American stereographers
arranged alphabetically by States; and second, a world register of 4,200
card photographers giving the countries and approximate dates of activity,
with references to the book on which they are cited. Three hundred illustrations
of stereographs supplement the text. "The World of Stereographs" was written
not only for collectors, librarians, archivists, and historians, but also
for the general appreciation and enjoyment of stereographs.
