| Synopsis: |
The art of photography was still young when Edward Sheriff Curtis joined the Harriman Expedition in 1899. He left home a studio photographer; he returned a zealot with a mission: to document the world of the Natives throughout North America before white settlers destroyed it utterly. This book features the best of Edward Sheriff Curtis's turn-of-the-century Alaska images alongside translations of Native legends and reflections of modern-day Natives. |
