As it happened, viewers increasingly used their reactions to photographs to comment on and debate public issues as vital as war, national identity, and citizenship. Cara A. Finnegan analyzes a wealth of newspaper and magazine articles, letters to the editor, trial testimony, books, and speeches produced by viewers in response to specific photos they encountered in public. From the portrait of a young Lincoln to images of child labourers and Depression-era hardship, Finnegan treats the photograph as a locus for viewer engagement and constructs a history of photography's viewers that shows how Americans used words about images to participate in the politics of their day. 606 $aDocumentary photography$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDocumentary photography$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPhotography$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDocumentary photography$xHistory 615 0$aDocumentary photography$xHistory 615 0$aPhotography$xSocial aspects 676 $a770.9/034 700 $aFinnegan$b Cara A.$0874354 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463618303321 996 $aMaking photography matter$91952254 997 $aUNINA
