Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to Somewhere in Time: Volume One, the first book in my pre-teen history series, crafted to make history not just a subject to study, but a world to explore.
In this debut volume, I introduce you to Julia Margaret Cameron, a visionary who helped shape the art of photography in the 19th century. Celebrated as one of the greatest portrait artists of her time, Julia's unique friendship with British poet Sir Alfred Tennyson led to a remarkable collaboration in 1841, when she was asked to bring his Idylls of the King to life through her innovative photography.
Volume One combines rich historical detail with engaging storytelling, transporting young readers into Julia's captivating world and the storied era of medieval knights. The book is filled with beautiful, historical photographs of Julia's family, friends, and descendants, offering a rare and intimate glimpse into the past.
This paperback is more than just a book-it's a gateway to discovering the connections between art, history, and the extraordinary lives that shaped them. My hope is that it sparks curiosity and inspires a lifelong love for history in young readers everywhere.
