Werdegang
langjähriger Herausgeber des Photograpic Art Journals
"After a number of generally unsuccessful business ventures, Snelling, in 1847, took up a position with Edward Anthony, then the major manufacturer and supplier of photographic materials, equipment and accessories. Questions about technique from customers reputedly encouraged Snelling to believe that there was a market for instruction manuals, and The History and Practice of the Art of Photography appeared within two years."
