“Flashes of Brilliance is a fascinating immersion among the obsessive rogues, daring experimenters, and fearless pioneers who risked life and limb to bring photography to life.”

— Bianca Bosker, New York Times best-selling author of Get the Picture

“Beautifully written, like a great work of fiction. Except, incredibly, it’s all true.”

– Phillip Prodger, former Head of Photographs, National Portrait Gallery, London
