Dellenbaugh, Blanche Helen McLane, Rome K. Richardson, George W. Hood, Thomas Watson Ball, Angel de Cora, Amy Rand, George W. Hood and many others. The books in this exhibition represent a wide variety of viewpoints--by Native American men and women, by white authors of different persuasions, and by people of mixed blood. Through book cover art we see the relationships between indigenous and immigrant Americans, from highly personal accounts to stereotypes. There is fiction and also fiction purporting to be truth, including a white missionary writing under a pseudonym as an Indian Chief, and a multiracial black man, son of a school janitor, writing as a pureblood Blackfoot Chief. Non-fiction categories include ethnographics, captivity narratives, songs and dances. Juvenile books include adventure stories for white boys and children's stories created by and for Indians. There are decorative, symbolic, and pictorial covers representing a wide variety of cultures from the Arctic to South America, and times from prehistoric to the early 20th century"--The Book Art of Richard Minsky web site.
