Summary:

"Among Edward Sheriff Curtis's huge body of photographs are numerous images of American Indian dwellings and other structures. Taken together they reveal an early modernist instinct that goes largely unnoticed in his more familiar portraits. A collection unlike any other, Sites & Structures: the Architectural Photographs of Edward S. Curtis is an invaluable typology of the vast Curtis work, and helps secure his place in the pantheon of great American photographers."--Jacket.
