Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good dj. New edition. [just a bit of shelfwear and light bumping to bottom edges/corners, one-time owner's rubber-stamped signature on front pastedowns (both volumes); jackets are uniformly age-toned (somewhat more at spines), with general soiling and some wrinkling along the top edges, but with no tears or chips]. (2 photogravure ports.; 72 color plates; 2 maps) Regrettably incomplete set (Volumes I and III only; Volume II is not present) of this classic work, originally published in three folio volumes issued in 1836, 1838 and 1844. The introduction to this "New Edition," by editor Hodge, presents an account of the creation of the original work (including much biographical information about the authors) and an extensive bibliographical discussion of numerous editions that followed, in particular the history of the work's most notable feature: the color portraits of many Native Americans, primarily tribal chiefs. Because the portraits, which hung originally at the War Department and later at the Smithsonian Institution, had been painted from life (and predated the widespread use of photography), in many instances they represent the only existing images of their subjects; and because most of the originals were destroyed in the 1865 Smithsonian fire, only the published reproductions remain. This edition contained 123 color plates in all, of which 72 are present in the two volumes on offer, as are the two color maps, at the end of Volume III. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of these heavy volumes; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.

Bookplates on inside front covers say, "The Library. Alexandria Library." Rubberstamps on free endpapers, Half titles, title page and the backs of all the plates. Title page has an additional rubberstamp that says 'Farouk Central Library.' Volume 1 has 442 pages. Volume 2 has 458 pages. Volume 3 has 355 pages. According to handwritten notes on the title pages, the plate counts in each volume are: volume 1 has 48 plates. Volume 2 has 50 plates. Volume 3 has 23 plates and 2 maps. McKenney and Hall's famous book (and more famous illustrations) was first published between 1836 and 1844. Its brilliant color plates (color lithographs after the original paintings by Charles Bird King and others) made it an immediate sensation. This reprint, 100 years after the original, faithfully reproduces all the plates in full color. Although this is an ex-library copy, it remains in quite good condition, although we all wish the rubberstamps weren't there. Please email to request photos.
