The Resettlement Administration, Farm Security Administration and Office of War Information in combination produced the largest documentary project in history. Over 100,000 photographs were taken, covering all aspects of life. This project enhanced the reputations of established photographers like Walker Evans and Ben Shahn, and it launched the careers of Dorothea Lange and Gordon Parks. Less well known photographers also captured scenes of American life that are moving, dramatic and evocative. This volume features the work of two of them, Ted Jung and Edwin Locke. Jung's small portfolio includes scenes of rural poverty captured with remarkable sympathy and respect for human dignity. Locke, who spent several years as personal secretary to Roy Stryker, who headed the documentary projects, also accepted a few assignments, and captured the beauty of New England, as well as the plight of African-American flood victims in Arkansas.

Published in 1858, this memoir recounts the life and work of the natural historian and geologist Hugh Edwin Strickland (1811–53). Written by his father-in-law, the Scottish naturalist Sir William Jardine (1800–74), the book covers Strickland's early childhood, his education at Oxford, his involvement in and influence upon the establishment of the Ray Society and his notable academic pursuits in natural history before his life was tragically cut short by a freak railway accident in 1853, when he was just forty-two. The reader will gain an insight into Strickland's character, his scientific acquaintances, including Henslow and Darwin, and his wide-ranging interests in the area of natural history, including geology, zoology, palaeontology and especially ornithology, demonstrated by his study The Dodo and its Kindred (1848). Drawing upon revealing and informative extracts from Strickland's journals throughout, the book also contains a wide selection of Strickland's shorter scientific writings.
