Note: Many of my clients are scholars and researchers seeking specific information related to their field of interest. For their convenience I include the following details directly from this book. Including Fantastic War Dances, Mysterious Medicine Men, Desperate Indian Braves, Tortures of Prisoners; Daring Deeds; Adventures of the Chase, Etc. Superbly Illustrated with Phototype and Wood Engravings. By Ella Hines Stratton. Published in 1902 (no publisher cited). 10 x 7 cloth hardcover with front pastedown illustration. Illustrated with color frontispiece, monochromatic half-tone photos (blue like cyanotype, red, black and white), along with text illustrations and one other color page. Exterior as shown in photo with some surface wear on front board, also some nicking and fraying of cloth on spine, edgewear, rubbing at corners. Binding is still pretty good, hinges unbroken, text block secure. One or two illustrated pages near the middle have roughened edges and a bit of soiling but remain intact. Text is complete and generally clean aside from occasional finger smudges. Occasional small edge tears in the margins, nothing serious. Otherwise no torn, loose or missing pages. Gift inscription on first endpaper. Good surviving example of this rare American Indian title from the turn of the century. This is a rare and beautiful book about Native American history, focused largely on famous Indian leaders and conflicts with Europeans/white settlers during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. It was probably written for a younger audience (the text is presented as an ongoing dialogue) yet it presents a great deal of information and contains more than a hundred antique photos and illustrations of American Indians and scenes related to their history. Certainly a wonderful 118-year-old title and collectible, a great introduction to some of Americas greatest true Indian stories. In order to give you the most accurate description of this rare and fascinating book, I have provided some helpful details below, starting with a detailed summary of the contents, followed by an equally thorough summary of the books hundred-plus photos and illustrations. Further down this page, you can see some of these historic images for yourself. Due to the historical significance of this work and its valuable Native American portraiture, I took the liberty of including more than the usual complement of pictures. It may take an extra few seconds to load, but well worth it. I hope youll take a few moments to have a look.
