In 1890 Annette Ross Hume arrived in Anadarko, Oklahoma with her physician husband, who began work for the Kiowa, Comanche, and Wichita Agency. Sensitive to the extraordinary time and place, Hume picked up a camera--the technology was beginning to be marketed for general use--and involved herself in photographing what was around her. Over the years, she photographed Native Americans, settlers, and the settlement as it grew from tents to built town. Lovett and Southwell are affiliated with The Western History Collections at the U. of Oklahoma, where Hume's images have been housed since the late 1920s. This elegantly produced book (9.5x11.5) presents the images in chronological order, one to a page, with commentary, along with an extended essay on the life and work of a remarkable woman. Notes, references, and indexing round out the presentation. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
