Most of these images by early day photographer Royal W. “Roland” Reed were taken in the early 1900s.

They are part of the 244-page book, “Alone with the Past: The Life and Photographic Art of Roland W. Reed” that will be published in June by Afton Historical Society Press.

Reed was among a group of pictorialists — photographers who set out to document what they saw as a vanishing culture of American Indian tribes.
