48mo. 16pp. An attempt to communicate the culture and practices of the indigenous peoples of New England is here accompanied by captioned engravings. Certainly a troubled ethnographic enterprise, but nevertheless illuminating attitudes towards Native Americans in the mid-19th century. Text body detached from wrappers, with further gathering separated, generally foxed and rubbed, but all present and quite legible. Good+.
