This book reproduces a selection ofphotographs of Brighton and Hove that portray the changing face and character of this colorful seaside town and its residents over nearly a century and a half. The book includes historic daguerreotypes from the 1840s by William Constables and a remarkable series of paper negatives and albumen prints by Edward Fox from the 1850s and 1860s. The book underlines the attraction of Brighton and Hove to visiting photographers--the architecture, people and activity that provided endless inspiration. The majority of the 145 photographs are previously unpublished and provide a vivid evocation of the varied artistic aspirations and vernacular applications of the photographic medium. The book includes images by internationally renowned masters such as William Henry Fox Talbot, Bill Brandt, Walker Evans and Henri Cartier-Bresson, as well as introducing fine work by hitherto unrecognised masters such as William Constable, William Mason Junior, Edward Fox and George Ruff Junior.
Small enough to toss into a camera bag, yet thorough in coverage, Hove User's Guides are the best all-around camera manuals available. Each book describes the special features and operation of a single camera model or model family.

Exakta Cameras: This book tells the fascinating story of this pioneering make, through the camera, lenses and accessories, for the benefit of collectors, historians and dealers. It will also appeal to the many enthusiasts who first experienced with their Exakta the versatility of the single lens reflex camera.
The object of this book is to demonstrate to the reader how recent developments have so greatly simplified the enlarging and printing process – particularly in color, which was once the preserve of only the most dedicated amateur. Modern cameras, particularly the 35mm SLR which is now so widely used, have made the taking of the original snapshot simple and reliable. The cameras themselves are capable of producing results of a quality that their owners seldom realize when they rely on mass commercial processing and printing. This book is ideal for the expert and amateur.
