英文注释:

"In 1903, Chief Joseph [pictured] came to Seattle. Twenty-six years earlier, after a brilliant campaign and near escape to Canada, Joseph and his band of Nez Perce had finally surrendered. ... They were held as prisoners of war for eight years in Kansas's Fort Leavenworth and in Indian Territory, then were moved to the barren lands of the Colville Reservation in eastern Washington.

"Ever since his surrender, Joseph had been on a quest to return to his homeland [the Wallowa Valley]. ... Joseph had traveled as far as Washington, D.C., giving speeches and trying to sway public opinion, and had even met while in the capital with President Theodore Roosevelt. But settlers had moved into the Wallowa Valley, and the government would not let Joseph go home."

—From the National Geographic book Edward S. Curtis: Coming to Light, 2001
