Elgin from Old Photographs by Jenny Main
Elgin From Old Photographs offers a fascinating glimpse into life in this Scottish town over the last hundred years or so. More than 230 images illustrate the changes that have overtaken the area and its surrounding villages. Drawing upon an eclectic collection of photographs, the author offers a charming glimpse into the history and natural beauty of this area. There is something for everyone here, whether they have lived in this corner of Scotland all their lives, or whether they are just visiting this beautiful area. Elgin From Old Photographs also shows how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an ever changing society.
Born in New Zealand, Jenny Main has lived in Elgin for most of her life, having moved to England with her mother at the age of two. She has produced three previous books of photographs of Elgin and has edited the Moray Field Club Bulletin for many years, which she says has given her a greater insight into the history and natural history of the area. She was also encouraged in this interest by her late husband, who was president of the Moray Society, the charity which runs the Elgin Museum.
