1997407747New Mexico: Arena Editions 1997. A near-fine copy with some slight toning along the sheet edges few bumps on boards dust jacket lightly worn. 12.5 x 9.75 inches. 112 pages. Boards; dust jacket. Second edition. "Adam Fuss has emerged as one of the bold and truly creative artists utilizing photography today. Fuss's photograms clearly break from those of his predecessors Man Ray Moholy-Nagy and Talbot and while striking a chord of homage the images redefine how and what we see in pictures viscerally and intellectually. Like an eighteenth-century experimenter Fuss utilizes organic and raw materials in an unusual approach revealing spiritual and emotional process. Live snakes the entrails of rabbits eggs cow liver sperm flowers and stained glass circumscribe the vital often mysterious energies emitted from these pictures. This book the first major monograph of the artist's work to date has been widely acclaimed as one of the finest art books of 1997. The reprint appears in conjunction with the artist's mid-career retrospective at the Fotomuseum Winterthur Switzerland." <br/><br/> Arena Editions hardcover books

20122304516New York: Oxford University Press 2012. First Edition. First Edition. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition. Very minor general wear. 2012 Hard Cover. x 310 pp. "It began with an eclipse. In 1806 the Shawnee leader Tenskwatawa "The Open Door" declared himself to be in direct contact with the Master of Life and therefore the supreme religious authority for all Native Americans. Those who disbelieved him he warned "would see darkness come over the sun." William Henry Harrison governor of the Indiana Territory and future American president scoffed at Tenskwatawa. If he was truly a prophet Harrison taunted let him perform a miracle. And Tenskwatawa did just that making the sun go dark at midday. In The Gods of Prophetstown Adam Jortner provides a gripping account of the conflict between Tenskwatawa and Harrison who finally collided in 1811 at a place called Tippecanoe. Though largely forgotten today their rivalry determined the future of westward expansion and shaped the War of 1812. Jortner weaves together dual biographies of the opposing leaders. In the five years between the eclipse and the battle Tenskwatawa used his spiritual leadership to forge a political pseudo-state with his brother Tecumseh. Harrison meanwhile built a power base in Indiana rigging elections and maneuvering for higher position. Rejecting received wisdom Jortner sees nothing as preordained-Native Americans were not inexorably falling toward dispossession and destruction. Deeply rooting his account in a generation of scholarship that has revolutionized Indian history Jortner places the religious dimension of the struggle at the fore recreating the spiritual landscapes trod by each side. The climactic battle he writes was as much a clash of gods as of men. Written with profound insight and narrative verve The Gods of Prophetstown recaptures a forgotten turning point in American history in time for the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Tippecanoe.
