Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Indian Life and Indian History: Embracing the Traditions of the North American Indians Regarding Themselves, Particularly of That Most Important of All the Tribes, the Ojibways In compliance with the oft-repeated request of a number of literary friends I present this volume to the public. In doing so there is another motive that has influenced me, and I may be pardoned, if here, at the commencement of my task, I briefly record it. In thus giving a sketch of my nation´s history, describing its home, its country and its peculiarities and in narrating its traditionary legends I may awaken in the American heart a deeper feeling for the race of redmen and induce the pale-face to use greater effort to effect an improvement in their social and political relations. You must know that my advantages have not been very great for the attainment of knowledge; that, in common with my forest brethren I have, as the saying is, "been brought up in the woods."
