Aus Daniel Boone's Leben. Frontispiece, Jugend Album Hallberger: Stuttgart, 1863. Coupled with the work of the engravers increasingly came the work of photographers such as Alexander Gardner and Edward Curtis. Gardner's work on "Death on the Plains" in Across the Continent on the Kansas and Pacific Railroad does profoundly what most true captivity narratives in prose did not-show the outcome of one who did not make it back, simply, to relate his or her narrative. Instead, thjs captive becomes in death what artists of all kinds increasingly saw as the visual impact of a sacrifice to the taming of the frontier. Realism had arrived to the genre.
