NORD-AMERIKAS OCH DE, UNDER ETT ATTAARIGT VISTANDE BLAND DE VILDASTE AF DERAS STAMMAR UPPLEFVADE AFVENTYR OCH ODEN.... This edition of Catlin is a curious hybrid of his two best-known works, Letters and Notes on the Manners, Customs, and Condition of the North American Indians... (1841) and Catlin's North American Indian Portfolio... (1844). The text of this edition is an abridged version of the text of Letters and Notes..., while most of the plates are scaled-down versions of the large folio plates of the...Indian Portfolio.... A similar version of Catlin's works, in German, appeared in Brussels in the same year as the present one. These Continental editions of Catlin are quite scarce.
