Product Code: 14003 Price: Check Latest "At the boundaries of the British Empire, photography pushed at its own frontiers. These 250 photographs, published here as a collection for the first time, provide a valuable and very specific record of Burma between the First and Second World Wars, when the British and Indian military had a profound impact on its peoples and territories just as the country was struggling trying to redefine itself. The images are selected from James Henry Green's extensive photography of recruitment and slave-release campaigns in the northern parts of Burma, documenting contact, exchange, and change in Burma's religion, trade, military, and education. These photographs—ranging from spectacular landscapes to individual portraits—trace Green's anthropological and military work, predominantly among the Kachin, Shan, and Chin people, and also chronicle his personal journeys.
