In this lot is the book "Sacred Legacy: Edward S. Curtis and the North American Indian". N. Scott Momaday wrote, "Taken as a whole, the work of Edward S. Curtis is a singular achievement. Never before have we seen the Indians of North America so close to the origins of their humanity ... Curtis' photographs comprehend indispensable images of every human being at every time in every place." This book is a striking piece of collections of Curtis's photographs. This book is a piece of art in and of itself. In this landmark volume, almost 200 of the finest examples of Curtis' photographs are reproduced with startling fidelity to his original prints. The dust cover has very slight curling to the bottom and the inside page bears the stamp of the previous owner; other than that, this book is in excellent condition. The book has 191 pages and measures 13" X 11".
