Weller” is an electronic book published on the Scalar platform: http://scalar.usc.edu/works/fg-weller-/index . Women’s Views:  The Narrative Stereograph in Nineteenth-Century America (New Hampshire University Press, 2015) was the first critical study of the stereoscopic genre scene and its popular success among women.
