[Missionary Narrative]:

$2,000 · Offered by William Reese Company

SIX MOIS CHEZ LES SAUVAGES. Par un Missionaire. The only edition of this scarce Native American missionary narrative which, according to Howes, is based on an anonymous 18th-century account of a missionary who worked around the Great Lakes. The first chapter describes the Native American tribes and languages of Canada. Earlier bibliographies record the imprint date as either 1855 or 1856, but the Siebert copy, with a school label dated April 8, 1854, provides concrete evidence of earlier publication. Not in Field.
