Using a photolithographic process that predated the autochrome by nearly 20 years, they \u003cstrong\u003eoffered people the very first color photographs of the United States\u003c\/strong\u003e. Suddenly, the continent's colors were available for all to see. From the rich ochres and browns of the Grand Canyon to the dazzle of Atlantic City, these places were now a visual delight not only for eyewitnesses but for Americans far and wide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Imbued with a sense of discovery and adventure, the pictures gathered here are \u003cstrong\u003ea voyage through peoples, places, and time\u003c\/strong\u003e. They take us through North America's vast and varied landscape, where we encounter its many communities, and above all transport us back to the United States of over a century ago. Across \u003cstrong\u003emore than 600 pages\u003c\/strong\u003e including fold-out spreads, this \u003cstrong\u003esweeping panorama\u003c\/strong\u003e takes us from Native American settlements to New York's Chinatown, from some of the last cowboys to Coney Island's heyday. As luminous now as they were some 120 years ago, these \u003cstrong\u003erare and remarkable images\u003c\/strong\u003e that brought America to Americans now bring America's past to our present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Walter, Sabine Arqué\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3836567911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783836567916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Taschen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 612\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 13.60h x 10.30w x 1.90d","brand":"Marc Walter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44047203401983,"sku":"9783836567916","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0cdc6f22-f935-48ec-84e5-8aed07832d43.jpg?v=1684988851","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/america-1900-marc-walter-9783836567916","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
