204-221 pages with Bibliography. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Volume 49, number 2 complete issue. First edition.
There is a general opinion, supported by some of the older authors and by much of the modern ethnological data, that the type of Indian warfare as evidenced in northeastern America in the eighteenth century is not an integral part of the aboriginal culture pattern. This view takes the position that warfare of extermination in the area of stress had its roots in abnormal conditions produced by the fur trade and by intensive rivalry of various European nations for domination. On the other hand, some of the earliest accounts of this area describe warlike activities or raids, based upon aboriginal traditions, prior to any European influence. The purpose of this paper is to present an account of the warfare of the period previous to the development of the fur trade and the struggle for supremacy between France and England, and to attempt to establish the significance of these incidents as part of the culture pattern.

Condition: Spine sunned, previous owner's name to front wrapper, corners bumped else very good.
