" Mr. Brothers has had an experience in Photography so large and varied that any work 

 by him cannot fail to he interesting and valuable. ... A MOST COMPREHENSIVE volume, 

 entering with full details into the various processes, and VERY FULLY illustrated. The 

 PRACTICAL HINTS are of GREAT VALUE. . . . Admirably got up." Brit. Jour. ofPhotograpJiy. 



" For the Illustrations alone, the book is most interesting ; but, apart from these, the 

 volume is valuable, brightly and pleasantly written, and MOST ADMIRABLY ARRANGED." 

 Photographic News. 



" Certainly the FINEST ILLUSTRATED HANDBOOK to Photography which has ever been 

 published. We have three Photogravures, four Collotypes, one Chromo- Collotype, numerous 

 Blocks, Photo-Chromo-Typograph, Chromo-Lithograph, Woodbury-Type, and Woodbury- 

 Gravure Prints, besides many others. ... A work which should be on the reference 

 shelves of every Photographic Society." Amateur Photographer. 



"This really IMPORTANT handbook of Photography . . . the result of wide 

 experience ... a manual of the best class. . . . As an album of examples of 

 photographic reproduction alone, the book is not dear at the price. ... A handbook so 

 far in advance of most others, that the Photographer must not fail to obtain a copy as a 

 reference work." Photographic Work. 



"The COMPLETEST HANDBOOK of the art which has yet been published. There is no 

 process or form of apparatus which is not described and explained. The beautiful plates 

 given as examples of the different processes are a special feature." Scotsman. 



" Processes are described which cannot be found elsewhere, at all events in so convenient 

 and complete a form." English Mechanic. 



" The chapter on PRACTICAL HINTS will prove INVALUABLE. Mr. Brothers is certainly 

 to be congratulated on the THOROUGHNESS of his work." Daily Chronicle.
