Navajo and Photography: A Critical History of the Representation of the Native American People

This is a paperbound reprint of a 1996 book (U. of New Mexico Press) about which Book News wrote: Faris (professor emeritus, anthropology, U. of Connecticut) surveys the assumptions that have governed photographic representations of Navajo people by white Westerners, from the earliest photographs of Navajo in captivity at the Bosque Redondo to the most recent glossy picture books and calendars. Superb, abundant b&w photographs, some previously unpublished. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
