1: History of the Camera would be a better title.
This book is part of a series one we will probably buy all of they are well written. Like I said in the title though, it's more of a History of the camera and the people that used them over time and how that's changes. Nice 4 page pullout in the middle. However, it's not a book with picutres of the guts of the camrea like I thought it would be. I thought it would be more about "how it works" and "how the parts have changed" and gotten smaller, that it is NOT! It's well done, there is alot more reading, then I thought there would be. This is a book for an avid reader, someone doing a report, teaching a class, or a student of the camera/film industry, or someone wanting to know more about the "individualS" (not nessecarily the actual inventor) that brought this invention to the world and it's people. It's more a High School level read then it is for upper elementary (which I bought it for).
