Trade Review"An insightful, beautifully crafted, and enjoyable read. Lee writes with consummate command of the materials and manages with commendable skill to narrate both personal lives – of the photographers and their subjects alike – and the changing socio-economic pressures on them with equal measure and sophistication." Luke Gartlan, University of St Andrews
"A much-needed history of the emergence of Scottish pastoralism, The Global Flows of Early Scottish Photography stands out not least because it is the first book to take up in a sustained way the relationship between the camera and globalization." Thy Phu, University of Western Ontario
"Remarkably thorough in the way he outlines the commercial and socio-political developments of the locales he discusses, Lee has made valuable contribution to the history of the relationship between photography and European colonialism." The Burlington Magazine
