Travels in the interior of North America during the years 1832-1834 / Maximilian Prince of Wied ; illustrations by Karl Bodmer.

Summary:

In 1832, Maximilian Prince of Wied set out with the Swiss painter Karl Bodmer on an expedition to study the way of life of the North American Indians. Starting at the east coast, they followed the courses of the Ohio, Mississippi, and Missouri Rivers until they reached the far northern regions of present-day Montana. While the Prince collected ritual implements, noted his observations, and transcribed his conversations with the Indians, Karl Bodmer created fascinating watercolors. Bodmer portrayed the chieftains and the warriors, the dances and the ceremonies, and even captured the bison on the broad expanses of the prairies -- images that the general public had never seen before. Consequently, on their return from Europe, they published a portfolio of their experiences with 81 plates and two volumes of text. This reproduction presents all 81 of the plates and a selection of Prince Maximilian's text.
