In addition to the reproduction
of the 30 noteworthy photo-
graphs by Jackson taken during
his long and enriched lifetime,
the Forsee story is illustrated
by Douglas Gorsline.
The biography itself is like a
chapter of American history. The
noted photographer's work among
the Indians add to an understand-
ing of the early Americans. His
photographs helped create interest
in national parks.
Jackson's experiences included
travels aboard, difficulties
in
Singapore, tours of India and other
lands, trekking across Siberia by
sledge.
His life was a great adventure,
and his name is part of the legend
of America's development as a
great nation. Forsee's biography
keeps his name alive as one of
the distinguished creative Ameri-
can who developed a great art, who
turned to painting, winning ac-
claim for his portraits which have
a place in noted institutions, and
whose life serves as an inspira-
tion for wholesomeness to young
Americans for whom this biogra-
phy was written.
