Comprehensive history of company & technologies it pioneered
This volume exhaustively recounts the history of "Kodak" cameras and films with an emphasis on Kodak's corporate personalities, photographic innovations and technologies. Throughout, the technical and corporate details are well supplimented by a large number of photographic prints - illustrating the fruits of the company's endeavors. The large "art book" format allows presentation of these historic photographs in appropriate sizes, and Abrams' fine paper does justice to the art. Overall, a very successful work.

Criticism: Although numerous Kodak cameras are illustrated in the book, camera collectors will need to look elsewhere for a really complete and ordered guide to Kodak's many offerings through the years. This work was not intended to simply catalog Kodak's products.
