From PETER KENDRICK, just out of high school, lands a lob in a small commercial photographic studio in Chicago. Pete has a dual aim. He wants to get started in his profession so he’ll be ready to take his place in the post-war world. But first he wants to be prepared to take a photographic assignment when he goes into his country's service. After covering football games, livestock shows, studio set-up shots and angry bees abroad, he gets his big chance-to do a complete picture story of the Great Lakes Training Station for the picture magazine Look. We follow the activities of Pete and Jo-Ed, the attractive, alert young girl who works in the same studio, from the conception of the idea, through researching the job, preparing a script, taking the pictures. processing and captioning-ending with an inside view of what happens after Look receives the material. The actual photographs of this assignment are in the book, as they appeared in Look, through the courtesy of that magazine.
