Frederick W. W. Howell was a schoolmaster in Birmingham who summered in Iceland in the late 1800s. He was an explorer & outdoorsman and while he was a product of his time (which I've tried to approach honestly) he took some amazing photos of an Iceland, (as reported back home) "on the edge of modernity." The photos got a new life when they were collected and annotated by Cornell librarians. I can find ONE BLURRY PHOTO of the guy, but I wrote this
