Publisher's Synopsis

""Wanderings Of An Artist Among The Indians Of North America"" is a non-fiction book written by Paul Kane, an Irish-Canadian artist who travelled extensively across North America in the mid-19th century. The book is a detailed account of Kane's travels and experiences among various indigenous tribes, including the Cree, Ojibwe, Blackfoot, and Chinook, among others. Kane's journey took him from Canada to Vancouver Island, Oregon and through the Hudson's Bay Company's territory and back again. The book is filled with vivid descriptions of the landscape, people, and customs he encountered, as well as sketches and paintings he created during his travels. ""Wanderings Of An Artist Among The Indians Of North America"" offers a unique perspective on the indigenous cultures of North America during a time of great change and upheaval, as European settlers began to encroach on their lands and ways of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
