It's nice to hear good things about the Edward Curtis book. I've had my eye on it for a while as a possible gift for my sister.
ReplyDeleteI don't know of the Curtis book, but I'm happy to see that Ford won the fiction award for "Canada." That's quite a book, in my estimation.
ReplyDeleteJenny - It is a great story. Curtis was a fascinating man who overcame tremendous odds to get the photos. The photos are remarkable.
ReplyDeleteAnon. - I'll have to look for Canada!
That anonymous person was me, JenClair. Not sure what happened on that one...but then, I'm usually confused anyway when it comes to leaving comments.
