Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In 1877 in Rochester, New York, George Eastman couldn't understand why picture-taking was so difficult. Having left school at fourteen to support his mother and two sisters, George decided to find out by making photography his hobby.

It's a Snap George Eastman's First Photo introduces a new series for Tundra -- the Great Idea Series -- a must-have for schools, libraries, and parents alike. Slavin, Bill (illustrator).…
