The Open Book: A History of the Photographic Book from 1878 to the Present is a lavishly illustrated exploration of the evolution of the photographic book. Edited by Andrew Roth and published by the Hasselblad Center in 2004, it serves as a comprehensive companion to Roth's seminal 'The Book of 101 Books.' The work chronicles the art of combining photographic reproductions with text on printed pages, tracing its trajectory from the late nineteenth century to the contemporary era. It includes essays by Simon Anderson and Ute Eskildsen, a conversation with Philip Aarons, a photo-essay by Gerhard Steidl including a contribution by Robert Frank, and an afterword by Hasse Persson. The book highlights 175 significant points in the history of photographic publishing.
