On the landing were the middle classes.In this fascinating and attractive collection Lesley Richmond presents the family album of William Fulton Jackson, General Manager of the North British Railway Company, who was an active member of the middle classes – an Edwardian gentleman – and a naturally talented photographer. His lens captured his family at home and on holiday (at locations as exotic as Egypt), as well as the life of towns, cities, fishing villages and rural areas, producing images of amazing quality and technical accomplishment.This book brings together, for the first time, a selection of his photographs – enhanced by the textual introductions of Lesley Richmond – providing a unique insight into an Edwardian family’s world which was about to be dramatically altered by the Great War.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
