Vaqueros, Cowboys, and Buckaroos: The Genesis and Life of the Mounted North American Herders
A must-read for all photographers--which is now everyone. One main thing that I realized when reading the book, is that the sheer popularity of photography has not changed. The fact that there are an exponentially larger number of images captured, the spirit (and oftentimes the banality of photography) is the same.
To wit:
"Far more than in previous decades, amateurs in the 1940s and 1950s did indeed take their cameras everywhere and photographed everything, creating an almost visual stream of consciousness record of their lives. Nothing was off-limits. As life imitated art and moviegoers saw the intense physical intimacy, their own snapshots begin to reveal far more personal moments, even one showing great passion, then they had in previous decades."
"As the consumer culture racist forward in the 1950s, propelled by television and the advertising media eager to encourage Americans to want evermore possessions, amateurs made many more photographs of their hard-won trophies, showing off, for example, their new car or new refrigerator."
