About This Item
Sheridan House, 1938. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Good. Dust jacket tape repaired, book very good. First edition. Walter Campbell p. 80: "This author, curator of the Department of anthropology in the American Museum of Natural History, was a great authority on the American Indian. Here without any sacrifice of accuracy, he has departed from his scientific classifications and frankly tells what he saw and experienced on Indian reservations in the last years of the last century. It is our most perfect account of Indian agency life, written by one who had no axe to grind, was an accurate observer, and wrote very readable prose. The standard book on this subject, illustrated with photographs and Indian drawings. An admirable memoir.
