Taylor's career coincided with a period when photographers began to provide Canadians with images of the \"wilderness.\" Drawing on the knowledge and expertise of Indigenous guides, Taylor travelled not only through settled parts of New Brunswick, but also into the wilderness of the north, providing views of hitherto unfamiliar and unknown terrain and helping to popularize the outdoors as a venue for canoeing, hunting and fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaylor's work is also a record of rural and farm life on the rich floodplains and intervals of the Saint John River valley, of daily life in Fredericton, and of the large-scale expansion of railways in the province. Captured in the \"slow seconds\" of his camera, George Taylor's photographs illumined landscapes, people, and the seismic changes taking place at the cusp of the new century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first book of Taylor's photographs, \u003ci\u003eSlow Seconds\u003c\/i\u003e presents a curated selection of one hundred photographs together with an account of the beginnings of photography and Taylor's life and work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ronald Rees, Joshua Green\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1773101366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781773101361\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Goose Lane Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 8.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Ronald Rees","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44078620967167,"sku":"9781773101361","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98d2d2e8-fbc3-4da1-885f-706ab1fff679.jpg?v=1685476547","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/slow-seconds-ronald-rees-9781773101361","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
