DRONFIELD, England, June 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- New release "Sixty Years in Sixty Minutes" (published by AuthorHouse UK) from Don Jacklin is a photographic documentation of a 60-year period of life which has passed by his lens.
The book represents a 60-year span of recording everyday things, most of which are unrepeatable and must be of historic interest. Each photograph allows readers to imagine the "goings on" around each scenario, giving them the pleasure of seeing a varied slice of past life in North Britain. With it, Jacklin hopes to persuade the new generation to record life for themselves and put together their own photo collection that may be a future minor legacy.
"This book is different inasmuch it has been produced by a little-known member of society and not a Professional of world renown," the author states. "I would like to think that British Amateur Photojournalism never dies and ordinary people such as myself can and will make the effort to continue recording for posterity."

About the Author
Born in May 1940 to the crashing accompaniment of Nazi bombers during their Blitz on Sheffield Steel City, Don Jacklin survived and was brought up by loving parents and grandparents who formed his character and shaped his life. Luckily, he attended the Rowlinson Secondary Technical School in its heyday with a leaning towards engineering. His regular full time occupation was as a professional design engineer of heating and building services based in North England and traveling to numerous sites in the course of his career. For many of my active years, he was a member of the Phoenix Mountaineering Club, including a term as president, and underwent many treks and climbs across the Himalaya. He has also traveled to seek out wild landscapes in Patagonia, Australia, Kyrgyzstan, the USA, India and Tibet. He has been a long-time member of Dronfield Camera Club, The Leica Society and the Photographic Association of Great Britain as photography has been a big part of his life. Since his teen years, he has continually tried to catch photo glimpses of people and things he found interesting. In his 80th. Year, he looks back on these with fondness.
