 Three-Dimensional
Photography - Principles of Stereoscopy by Herbert C.
McKay (1895-1970) was first published in 1948 - this electronic
edition is a copy of the 1953 edition (which was the second

The main topic of Three-Dimensional Photography is
stereoscopic photographic technique. Titles of chapters
include Elementary Stereography, Stereoscopic Cameras, Stereographic
Technique, Flash in Stereo, Color in Stereo, Pictorial Stereography,

Close-up Stereography, Trick Work and Hyperstereo. The book
also provides a review of a wide range of stereoscopic film

does not go into too much detail in these areas. The book
contains a glossary of stereoscopic terms and is amply illustrated.
