The prose is jargon-free, lucid, and, at its best, poignant, especially when the author writes about the now-grown child subjects of his treasured postcard collection. . . . [MacDougall] urges scholars to see the visual as a complement rather than as a substitute for the verbal, as a language with its own vocabulary and potential.
Given the author's obvious accomplishments in both forms, his long and successful career stands as the best evidence for the validity of his argument.
