Royce, "The Mountain Chant: A Navajo Ceremony" by Dr. Washington Matthews, "The Seminole Indians of Florida" by Clay Maccauley, and "The Relgious Life of the Zuni Child" by Tilly E. Stevenson. From the library of Antonio Apache, with his small embossed stamp to the title page and his bookplate to the front flyleaf. An individual of considerable mystery, Apache was educated at Harvard, assuming a public persona of "the educated Indian" despite serious questions regarding his ethnic identity. After a breakfast meeting with Theodore Roosevelt in 1900, he was appointed to supervise the Indian Exhibit at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo; later, he managed Indian Village, a living history museum in Los Angeles. Quarto: liii, 564 p. with 23 plates, including two folding maps housed in the rear pocket, and 77 figures. Original green cloth binding, with gilt stamping. Some minor wear to the extremities; otherwise very good. Very good.
