From explorations of interracial adoption and the...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-23 Summary: MANDATORY READING FOR ALL INGRATEFUL CHILDREN ... A sadly little known fact: 100 years ago children in this country followed Africans and immigrants as the slaves du jor. Who was their emancipator? Public school teachers, and specifically Lewis Hine, whose photographic work has had a comeback thanks to Neil Peart and Rush using modified photos of his in one of their videos (Working Those Angels). While the TV keeps lying about teachers and schools being the enemy (because educated people don't buy their crap or watch many of their shows), the descendants of those ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-08-25 Summary: Kids at Work ~ a real eye-opener ... I found and bought this book at the Goodwill and thought it would be nice for looking at the photographs, since we like to look at real historical photos in our homeschool. Well, I decided to start reading the book and couldn't put it down. It didn't take long to finish it and I really enjoyed it. It was a real eye-opener. How interesting that Hines had to sneak around and often hide in order to get his photographs. He might tell a shop owner that he needed a photograph of a machine, but then asked the child worker ...more

When I grew up I knew because of this book I'd want to be a photographer and help the poor. I know am a photographer and an inner city teacher along with working with street kids. The black and whites in this photo I still study. They are mouth dropping! ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-05-30 Summary: Great book with good quality printing. ... This soft-cover book is written like a children's textbook, but Hine's photos look great all throughout. There are quite a few full-page prints, roughly 8x6 sized. I'm very satisfied with the purchase; only Aperture would print a book with better quality reproductions, and that's out of my price range right now. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Photobiography of early twentieth-century photographer and schoolteacher Lewis Hine, using his own work as illustrations.
