Photographs by
Edward S. Curtis.
A small selection of Curtis's classic photographs of Native Americans from many groups printed in softly rendered duotones has been paired with lullabies that speak of wind and stars, of salmonberry bushes, and of girls that are born to pick roses. A scholarly afterword and acknowledgments, intended for adult readers, are appended, but brief information on the different tribes' geographic locations is only found only on the front flap.
