Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from O-Kee-Pa: A Religious Ceremony: And Other Customs of the Mandans All men have, or ought to have, some peculiar ambition towards the attainment of which the principal energies of their lives are directed: mine, which developed itself some thirty years since, has been that of perpetuating the looks and customs of a numerous race of human beings fast passing to extinction. In this pursuit I have passed fourteen years of my life amongst the various tribes of Indians in North, South, and Central America, and of the numerous customs which I have recorded, there is nothing else so peculiar and surprising as the O-kee-pa of the Mandans, the subject of this book, - an annual ceremony, which I described in a former publication, but which description, forming hut an item in a largo work, was necessarily too brief to give all the connecting links of a custom which derives its interest from being understood in all its phases. This publication, therefore, which is made for all classes of readers, as well as for gentlemen of science who study, not the proprieties of man, but Man, and which has not before appeared in all its parts, is made from a sense of duty, to perpetuate entire a human custom of extraordinary interest, peculiar to a single tribe in America, and which tribe, as will be seen, is now extinct; leaving in my hands alone chiefly, what has been preserved of their personal looks and peculiar modes.

This book was released on 1869 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manuscript corresponds very closely to a lecture given by Catlin in London in 1865, giving his account of the Mandan religious ceremony known as the Bull Dance, and other ceremonies more shocking to Victorian sensibilities. Elements of this work were incorporated into Catlin's "O-kee-pa", published by him in 1867, with the priapic Bull Dance described only briefly in a three-page Folium Reservatum, seldom found with copies. Two years prior to that, however, in 1865, Catlin had lectured to the Philobiblion Society on various Mandan religious ceremonies including a full account of the Bull Dance, but also a fertility dance in which the excited women dancers picked sexual partners to lead into the prairie for a roll in the buffalo grass, sometimes multiple ones in an evening, and other highly sexually charged ceremonies. Catlin refused to let his lecture be published, but did submit an account to the Society in writing. This was promptly published without Catlin's approval, in an edition of only fifty copies. Catlin publicly disavowed authorship, and demanded the surrender of every copy. This manuscript is a near word for word transcription of that unauthorized and exceedingly rare publication, differing in one notable respect; the manuscript uses the phrase 'my public works' while the 1865 printed version says 'my published works', suggesting that this is a copy of Catlin's original manuscript, not one of the printed copies. The manuscript is also notable for its calligraphy (not Catlin's hand), which is identical to that found in the labels of Catlin's later ALBUM UNIQUES, the commissioned collections of drawings he made for a few clients. However, the paper of the manuscript is watermarked 1869, placing it after the Philobiblion edition of 1865. Given the elegant nature of the manuscript, and its fine binding, it seems most likely that this manuscript was made for private circulation, perhaps to one of the owners of one of the albums. As the printed account is so very rare, and given the controversy at the time of its appearance in 1865, it is not surprising that a fine manuscript copy such as this would have been prepared--
