A biography of the painter, author, and ethnographer who devoted his life to recording Indian life, not only in this country but in South America and Asia
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Grade 5-9-- Sufrin's readable biography is rich in colorful details, lively anecdotes, and intriguing descriptions from Catlin's own journals and letters. The book is liberally illustrated with the artist's paintings, most of which are portraits of Indians, named and identified by tribe and given life by the brief stories told about them. It reaches beyond the limits of biography to become, through paintings and comments, a story of the life and lore of the early 19th-century Plains Indians, and it could just as well be shelved with nonfiction about Native Americans. Unfortunately, the quality of paper is poor, and the paintings are all reproduced in black and white. --Shirley Wilton, Ocean County College, Toms River, NJ
