Description: "Inspired by daguerreotypes, tintypes, stereopticon slides, snapshots, and even yearbook photos, the poems in The White Train offer portraits of those no longer able to speak for themselves. John Spaulding explores history through the work of photographers over a hundred-year period, including Southworth & Hawes, Roger Fenton, Timothy O'Sullivan, Robert Howlett, Frederick Evans, Lewis Hine, and many anonymous amateurs."--BOOK JACKET.
