North American Indians by George Catlin
From 1831 to 1837, George Catlin, American ethnologist, travelled extensively among the native peoples of North America - from the Muskogee and Miccosukee Creeks of the Southeast to the Lakota, Mandan, and Pawnee of the West, and from the Winnebagos and Menominees of the North to the Comanches of eastern Texas. Studying their habits, customs and mode of life, Catlin made numerous notes and sketches. The results were published in two volumes of work in 1840. This one-volume edition of Catlin's journals is illustrated with more than 50 reproductions of his paintings and contains text on the manners, customs and condition of the North American Indians.George Catlin was a painter and writer from the United States. He left his law profession in 1823 to pursue his self-taught art, painting portraits in Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and other cities.
