Tales Of The Northwest Or Sketches Of Indian Life And Character By A Resident Beyond The Frontier (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780548117255)

""Tales of the Northwest"" is a collection of sketches and stories about the Native American tribes living in the American Northwest during the mid-19th century. Written by William J. Snelling, a resident of the frontier, the book provides a unique perspective on the lives and customs of the indigenous people of the region. The stories are based on Snelling's personal experiences and observations, as well as on the stories he heard from the Native Americans themselves. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the daily life of the tribes, their religious beliefs, their interactions with white settlers, and their struggles to maintain their traditional way of life in the face of encroaching civilization. Overall, ""Tales of the Northwest"" offers a fascinating glimpse into a vanished world and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
