In the years 1900-1930, American photographer Edward S. Curtis realized his life's work, the monumental twenty-volume book series The North American Indian (1907-1930). Over the years, this work has been both praised and criticized. In this comprehensive and innovative study, Herman Cohen Stuart corrects a number of persistent misconceptions about the way Curtis, for many the most image-defining and influential photographer of American Indians, has represented the indigenous peoples of North America. The author argues that Curtis was keenly aware of the major changes Native Americans faced in the early 20th century. As is demonstrated by a thorough - both quantitative and qualitative - analysis of both Curtis's texts and photographic artwork, Curtis was deeply conscious of the fact that by, and even before, the turn of the century, Western influences had already made large inroads into Native American life. This book provides a reappraisal of Curtis's position during this complicated and trying period for Native Americans.

Download Edward S. Curtis: Unpublished Plains Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
See the UnseenAlmost 200 previously unpublished Edward Curtis images of Native Americans of the Great Plains region have now made it into the public eye. These tucked away photographs weren't chosen for Curtis' 20 volumes of The North American Indian. With 40,000 images said to have been taken, only 2,234 were included in Curtis' grand opus. Now, we get to see a portion of the pictures that Curtis ultimately did not choose. These are not rejects by any means; they are beautiful and hold important historical information. Many Native Americans have thanked the Curtis Legacy Foundation for the treasure of Curtis' work. These conversations have been so heartwarming and thought provoking that we want to share these with our readers. It is important that you hear directly from them, in their words. Passed down through the Curtis family for generations are also fragments of memoirs written by Edward, his son Harold, and daughter Florence. Be amazed at the stories not only of Curtis' personal travels but also of how his children remember their childhoods and traveling alongside him. What an adventure for all."We knew nothing of labor union hours. Field work was kept up to the minute. Our average working time for a six-month season would exceed sixteen hours a day. Sometimes we worked around the clock. The men who worked with me complained the Chief [Curtis] never gets tired. I'm not so sure about that, but at least I kept going." ~ Edward Curtis

One hundred years ago, Edward Sheriff Curtis began a thirty-year odyssey to photograph and document the lives and traditions of the Native peoples of North America. Almost 200 of the finest examples of Curt is's photographs are reproduced; a significant number from platinum, gold, and silver prints. All have been carefully selected for publication and for an accompanying international exhibition by Curtis authority Christopher Cardozo. Geographic regions are presented separately and individual tribes within each region are depicted and described. Interspersed between these sections are portrayals of those aspects of life common to all tribes, among them spirituality, ceremony, arts, and the activities of daily life. Taken together, these profound images constitute no less than the core and essence of his life's work.
