Indian Days of Long Ago - Edward S Curtis - Bog

Indian Days Of Long Ago: Indian Life And Indian Lore is a book written by Edward S. Curtis, an American photographer and ethnologist who dedicated his life to documenting the traditional cultures and lifestyles of Native American tribes. This book is a collection of stories and legends that Curtis gathered from various tribes during his travels across the American West in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is divided into two parts: the first part describes the daily life of Native Americans, their customs, beliefs, and traditions, while the second part presents a series of myths and legends that explain the origins of the world, the creation of humans, and the relationships between humans and animals. The stories are accompanied by black and white illustrations and photographs taken by Curtis himself, which provide a visual representation of the people and places he encountered during his travels. Overall, Indian Days Of Long Ago offers a unique insight into the rich cultural heritage of Native Americans, as well as the personal experiences and observations of one of the most important documentarians of their way of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
