Volume 1 of A History of Early Film begins with the period of technical invention. The story of Edison''s peepshow Kinetoscope, set up in arcades from April 1894, is told by W. K. L. Dickson. ''Lantern Projection of Moving Objects'' heralds the arival of the first screenings in Britain, arranged by Auguste and Louis Lumière, Robert Paul and Birt Acres, announcing the new medium as a progressive development of optical moving-image toys, magic lantern projection and the Kinetoscope.
