Condition: Fine. This original, hand-colored lithograph comes from the first octavo edition of McKenney & Hall's History of the Indian Tribes of North America, published by Rice & Hart in Philadelphia and printed by J.T. Bowen between 1848 and 1850. An admirer and supporter of the American Indians, Thomas McKenney spent his tenure in office fighting for their cause and preserving their legacy through a gallery of paintings that were commissioned by various artists. Unfortunately, the original paintings burned in a fire, and all that is left to remember these Indians are the lithographs found in History which were modeled off the paintings. --- The work is in very good to excellent condition overall. There may be a few minor marks or imperfections to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions.

250, [2 blank] pp.Eighth edition of the New Testament in Maori and a slightly corrected edition of the controversial revision of 1887. The first serious edition of the New Testament in Maori translation, had appeared in 1837. Subsequent editions followed until a large revision was made in the fifth edition of 1852. By 1884 it was felt that a new revision should be made to correct the numerous misprints and incorrect translations. The resulting edition appeared in 1887 and is considered "the finest Maori book of the 19th century" (Lineham) but was highly unpopular with its intended audience because for most of the Maori the older Bible text had a spiritual status and memorization of the Bible was highly respected. Despite the objections, a new edition appeared in 1894 and together with the 1887-edition this is considered to be one of the "greatest Maori publications of the 19th century" (Lineham). The publication of this eighth edition was overseen by the same scholars who had prepared the 1887-edition. The text was supplied by William Leonard Williams, future bishop of Waiapu and an eminent scholar of Maori, who also corrected the proofs as far as signature H. The remainder of the text was corrected by Robert Maunsell, a missionary and authority on the Maori language. With a library stamp and an owner's inscription on the front endpaper. Some pages near the endpapers slightly foxed, otherwise in very good condition.l Darlow & Moule 6657; Williams 876; cf. Lineham, "Tampering with the sacred text", in: "A book in the hand", pp. 26-45.
