The McKenney-Hall Portrait Gallery of American Indians Hardcover – December 12, 1972

"Then in a man's lifetime, the American west of the buffalo, Indian, mountain men, stagecoach, explorer, keelboat, fur trapper, forty-niners, outlaws, and cattle barons were gone.""Colonel McKenney spent a great deal of time and money researching the life and culture of the American Indian for the text of his famous portfolio, published in the 1830's. The three volumes contained superb lithographic reproductions of the paintings accompanied by a text written by James Hall, a literary pioneer of the Midwest."

One of the greatest tragedies of all-greatest tragedies is that photography was not around during the discovery of America...This is the closest that we have.A picture is worth a thousand words....and there are many pictures. Words can't express...but you won't regret.Highly recommend!

As a child our neigbors had framed prints of the Native Americans in this book in their library. I had a love hate relationship with the prints. I would run into the room take a look, get scared and run out again. Recently I visited with their daughter and she had the above book with her and we poured over it. Pretty amazing with thevivid color prints and stories. So I had to have my own book. No I am not scared anymore but fascinated but wouldn'twant to meet them in a dark ally. This is really a recorded history and is a must for any person truly interestedin Native Americans.

Well made reproduction, but suffers from not being as beautiful or large as the original. This is obviously an unfair comparison, but I first saw this in all its original glory, so any modern repro was always going to be less than 5 stars!

The stories are just awesome. I LOVE this book. I read it 3 times.

The book had mold on it when it arrived. Returned it.

Beautiful book Just what I wanted.

This book & book binder were in perfect condition. Not one wrinkle or mark. I was so pleased becaus it was gift.

Great product.
