Description:
Clarion Books, 1994. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Paul Morin. CONDITION: UNREAD, but not perfect, c. 1993 Clarion hardcover (pictorial boards - no DJ), first printing. Problem: light shelf wear from sliding in and out of shelf against other books. Not bad but there. Beautiful and haunting color illustrations by Paul Morin. Decorated end pages. CONTENT: Dazzling paintings and "assemblage pieces" containing historic artifacts and natural objects from the Great Plains highlight this spare, poetic account of a dramatic episode in American history. The Ghost Dance movement, envisioned by the Paiute prophets Tavibo and Wovoka, began in hope: Native peoples danced together to restore the bountiful world of their ancestors. But it ended in tragedy, with the massacre at Wounded Knee. This evocative story offers a vivid glimpse of a vanished past, and a powerful message for the future.

CONDITION: NEW 2008 Clarion large hardcover (orange boards with gold foil title) and dust jacket (in mylar cover), first edition, 3rd printing. Color and B&W paintings/art reproductions throughout.

He spent much of his life in the wilderness, sketching and painting as he traveled. A solo trek across 500 miles of uncharted prairie, an expedition to the Andes, harrowing encounters with grizzly bears and panthers, and tours of the royal palaces of Europe were among his many adventures. In an era when territorial expansion resulted in the near annihilation of many indigenous cultures, George Catlin dedicated himself to meeting and writing about the native peoples of the western hemisphere. With his "Indian Gallery" of…

St. Martin's Press, 2017. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/New. No illustrations. CONDITION: "AS NEW" due to small remainder mark bottom edges. UNREAD 2017 St Martin's Press hardcover (orange boards) & dust jacket, first edition, first printing. Sure doesn't look like "Large Print" to me. No illustrations. CONTENT: 9 March 1876 My name is Meggie Kelly and I take up this pencil with my twin sister, Susie. We have nothing left, less than nothing. The village of our People has been destroyed, all our possessions burned, our friends butchered by the soldiers, our baby daughters gone, frozen to death on an ungodly trek across these rocky mountains. Empty of human feeling, half-dead ourselves, all that remains of us intact are hearts turned to stone. We curse the U.S. government, we curse the Army, we curse the savagery of mankind, white and Indian alike. We curse God in his heaven. Do not underestimate the power of a mother's vengeance... So…
