Portraits from North American Indian Life

Portraits From North American Indian Life beautifully documents all aspects of a marvelous culture that was on the brink of destruction. The spirit of Native American life is covered in great depth and with remarkable sensitivity to the connections between them, but the most remarkable segments of this text are the portraits. Like no other photographer before him, Edward Curtis attempts to capture the essence of these people and shows you what it is to walk along their great land. Filled with full-page sepia tone photographs and detailed text, Portraits From North American Indian Life is a beautiful and historical reference for all to enjoy.
