A Brief History of Photography started out being much the same as many similar histories ... it covered the development of the chemistry. Along the way, I've added background on some of the inventors, covered the development of lenses and included the seminal cameras of their day, so that it now provides a complete image of how we got to this digital age. To my knowledge, it is the only such history around.

Written as short, easy-to-read, non-technical entries, it covers the history of photography, from 1614 all the way to 2015.

My one review, so far, said: "If you haven't gotten a chance to read [it] I urge you to do so. He has updated the "History..."with images and additional text that just put a high gloss on an already sterling presentation." P.S. (Florida)
