Reviews
On Jul 10 2007, SDENNEY said:
"Who, and what, was the Indian? Was he a cruel, skulking savage? Or was he a shy, simple, confused but often friendly red man? ... Many of the stirring events, recounted in the simple manner of plain people who took bravery with their buffalo meat breakfasts, are printed here for the first time. Ralph Andrews searched and researched until he found the manuscripts and personal stories that best expressed people's views on the Indian. ... is a photographic history and presents some of the finest studies of Indian life and customers ever displayed. ... Represented in the 200 and more photographs are some of the finest work of Curtis, Jackson, Barry, Rinehart and others."
