Engineer Captain Percy Minhinnick (Compiler)

Circa 1914 – 1918

Featuring the Middle East and North Africa, Minhinnick’s album shows the military presence within the landscape: rows of tents in the desert, inflating a hot air balloon on the sand, men in uniform on the dunes. It also has snapshots of ancient ruins which contrast with the images of modern warships and seaplanes.
