In a Sacred Manner We Live: Photographs of the North American Indian by Edward S. Curtis
Perhaps the most fitting tribute to Curtis's work was written by George Bird Gringell. " I speak of Curtis's work as photography and of his pictures as photographs;but these terms are misleading to anyone who, in thinking of a photograph,forms a mental picture only of the photographs that he seen. The results that Curtis gets with his camera stir one as one is stirred by a great painting; and when we are thus moved by a picture, and share the thought and feeling that the artist had when he made the picture, we may recognize it as a work of art."
