Light mustard yellow endpapers. Binders ticket of Remnant and Edwards on the rear pastedown, Overall, a near very good copy of a book which made important contributions to early photography. Robert Hunt (1808 - 1887) science writer and chemist, was born at Plymouth Dock, now Devonport in the county of Devon. He was educated in Penzance and Plymouth, then placed with a surgeon in London. ' Later he was appointed librarian and keeper of mining records at the Museum of Practical Geology and professor of mechanical engineering at the Royal School of Mines, London. He carried on numerous photographic and photochemical experiments and he was one of the founders of the London Photographic Society. The discovery by Robert Hunt (1844) that iron sulphate (vitriol) was suitable for the development of light pictures on iodide, bromide, and chloride of silver was of great importance for the future. It is well known that it was just this iron sulphate developer which brought 'wet collodion' photography, invented several years later, to such efficiency,' - (J.M. Eder, 'Hist. photography', 1945, pp. 325-326). He made the acquaintance of Sir J.F.W. Herschel ( 1792 - 1891 ) the astronomer who gave ' .kind and generous assistance, through every stage of these experimental inquiries' which he acknowledges in the final paragraph of the Preface. Hunt also wrote the first general treatise on photography - A Popular Treatise on the Art of Photography, Glasgow : R. Griffin and company, 1841.
