Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. 1981 Second Printing Stated. 191 Pages Indexed. Light blue-green boards with red lettering and silver and red decorations to the cover and spine. There is a small tear at bottom spine area with some associated light damage. Interior text and illustration pages are flawless. This is a reprint of the 1913 edition published by American Museum of Natural History, New York which was issued as no. 2 of the Museum's Handbook series, with new preface and introduction. The four color art work on the endpapers, front and back, and several of the interior black and white sketches which were in the first edition, are from the Rio Grande Press art book. This edition has been enlarged from the original 6 X 9 book. When the author Goddard wrote Indians of the Southwest in 1912, he had been at the American Museum of Natural History in New York for three years and the Southwest Indian Hall had been placed in his charge. Goddard's influence on studies for Indians of the Southwest went beyond his museum displays and the present book, and his publications on Athapascan Indians. Goddard's interest went beyond abstract scientific problems but to the man and woman who had to be understood as moulded by the culture in which he lived. Seller Inventory # 19940

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. xiii+191 pages with frontispiece, figures, photographs, illustrations, bibliography and index. Quarto (11 1/4" x 8 1/2") bound in original publisher's turquoise cloth with red gilt lettering to spine and cover and silver pictorial to cover. Reprint of the 1913 edition published by the Museum of Natural History, Handbook Series, number 2. The pictures are striking and iconic, but the story behind them is far from black and white. Here, we profile 19th-century photographer Frank Rinehart s remarkable portrayal of Native Americans. The 1898 Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition in Omaha, Nebraska, modeled itself on the exuberant Chicago World s Fair of 1893, right down to the Venetian lagoon with its swan boats, encircled by stately plaster architecture. However, the star attraction was the Indian Congress, a three-month gathering of around 500 members of 30 tribes, including the Apache leader Geronimo, then a prisoner of war at Oklahoma s Fort Sill. Condition: A very good to fine copy. Seller Inventory # BOOKS003824
