Edward S. Curtis's extensive photographic project on Native Americans, conducted from the 1890s to the 1930s, involved not only thousands of images but also a wealth of cultural data, including myths and music. Funded by notable figures like Theodore Roosevelt and J. Pierpont Morgan, the work culminated in the influential twenty-volume series, The North American Indian. Mick Gidley's study delves into the project's complexities, exploring its historical context and the contributions of both Curtis and Native American collaborators, without glorifying or discrediting its legacy.
