• Kaplan , Daile . 1988 . Lewis Hine in Europe , 105 – 105 . New York : Abbeville Press . Kaplan's description of Hine's role in a special Red Cross mission provides a good example of how photographers worked on these missions (pp. 105–203). His relative independence and approach to the subject matter parallel those of LaVoy, Schoedsack and Edouart.
