L.A. Huffman: Photographer of the American West

by: Larry Len Peterson

Arriving in Fort Keogh, Montana Territory in 1879, frontier photographer Laton Alton Huffman

would capture the spirit of the American West like no other artist. Equally comfortable photographing Plains

Indians and working cowboys, Huffman worked both in the studio and out on the open range, carrying

his camera on horseback as he documented untamed Western landscapes and the last of the buffalo

herds. While many painters and photographers created art that romanticized the West, Huffman

also photographed everyday life, including sheep and cattle ranching, hunting and Indian camps.

He captured life in Miles City and Billings, with parades, street scenes and local citizens.

This hadnsome volume contains over 500 spectacular images of the American West.

Very large book - 296 pages! 12" x 12" and 1" thick!

What a great piece of American history!
