[.ca] Photographing Montana 1894-1928: The Life and Work of ... (ISBN 0878424253)

Photographs are exceeded only by the profound diary excerpts:
This outstanding book combines both exceptional unusual photographs capturing the time and place, with profound explicit diary notes of everyday life in Montana in the early 1900's. The narrative text is well developed and presents an outstanding review of the frontier by a British lady who made her mark in eastern Montana.

Outstanding frontier photography:
This is an outstanding book of frontier American photography, as well as an interesting story of the photography, Evelyn Cameron. Cameron was a high-society woman from England who moved to Montana with her husband in the late nineteenth century. Bored with frontier life, she learned photography from a neighbor and then began to photograph the natural beauty on wildlife of Montana. This books succeeds from both the frontier photography and the story of this woman's life.

Gathers photos which portray early Montana life:
Evelyn Cameron left her English home to become a rancher in Montana in the late 1800s: she used her photography skills to help support her family, and captured Montana life in the process. Photographing Montana gathers photos which portray early Montana life and deserves a spot in any Montana history collection as well as in art libraries seeking examples of regional photographic talent. Excerpts from her diaries and letters include plenty of autobiographical insights.

Eastern Montana photos by an English homesteader.:
Although she was born into British high society, Evelyn Cameron grew to love the desolation of Eastern Montana and photographed the beauty and emptyness of the landscape. Interesting reading about a tough, determined lady and her bookish husband, Ewen. Great photos of Eastern Montana and early homesteaders.
