Edward Sheriff Curtis, 1868-1952 / Hans Christian Adam.

Adam, Hans-Christian, 1948- (Author). Curtis, Edward S., 1868-1952 North American Indians. Selections. (Added Author).

Summary:

At the turn of the century, Curtis started on his thirty-year project to produce a monumental study of North American Indians. Using an approach that was both artistically and scientifically ambitious he recorded, in words and pictures, the traces of the traditional Indian way of life that was already beginning to die out. This book includes a selection from The North American Indian, his photographic life's work, which was originally published in 20 volumes.
