Book
Prayer to the great mystery : the uncollected writings and photography of Edward S. Curtis / Edward S. Curtis ; text edited by Gerald Hausman ; photography edited by Bob Kapoun ; introduction by Patricia Nelson Limerick.
An extraordinary collection of 243 b&w images, including many newly-discovered prints from the Library of Congress, taken by Curtis (1868-1952), famed photographer of Native America. The book presents him as a cultural anthropologist rather than as a patronizing romantic (as he is more often shown) and accompanies the photographs with myths and legends drawn from Curtis's 20-volume The North American Indian. c.
