Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Biography, Containing the Lives of More Than Two Hundred Indian Chiefs Whoever expects here a preface of apologies, will loose but little time in finding a disappointment. We have none to make. All must acknowledge the great want of such a work, which is deemed a sufficient excuse for adding another title to the long catalogue of books. No exertions have been remitted, to render it as perfect as its magnitude would ad mit. It is the first general attempt to embody Indian history in the only proper manner. The following notices have been thrown together within a few months, although many years have elapsed since the autho.r began the collection of materials, and set about gain hag/a knowledge of this kind of history. The first adventurer in any untrodden path, must often find himself embarrassed for want of landmarks, by which to direct his course. This will be apparent to the reader. But he will not be the first to whom it has been thus apparent. A small edition is now offered, which if well received, will be much improved and enlarged, and placed at the public disposal.

Book excerpt: Samuel Gardner Drake (October 11, 1798 - June 14, 1875) was an eminent American antiquarian.Drake was born in Pittsfield, New Hampshire. His father, Simeon Drake, was initially a farmer like his four brothers, but sold his homestead in 1805 to open a store in neighboring Northwood. His mother, Love Muchmore Drake (nee Tucke), was the daughter of a minister. Drake was named Samuel after his mother's eldest brother, Samuel J. Tucke, and the middle name Gardner derives from Samuel J. Tucke's wife's maiden name. Drake was educated in the common schools, and from 1818 to 1825 taught in a district school. He was fond of literary pursuits, and in 1828 he went to Boston, where he established an antiquarian bookstore - the first of its kind in the United States - and devoted himself to the study of early United States history. He continued to do business as a bookseller and publisher during his life, and the most noted writers of his day availed themselves of the store of information that he had collected. He was one of the founders (1847) of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, was its president in 1858, and for many years was the editor of its quarterly Register, contributing many articles to its pages. In 1858-60 he resided in London, England. Drake died of pneumonia in Boston on June 14, 1875, aged 76"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of Famous Indian Chiefs: From Cofachiqui, the Indian Princess, and Powhatan, Down to and Including Chief Joseph and Geronimo, Also an Answer, From the Latest Research, of the Query, Whence Came the Indian? Together With a Number of Thrillingly Interesting Indian Stories and Anecd We deem it well, however, to mention a few Of the many reasons which impelled us to attempt the somewhat laborious but congenial task of preparing this work. First of all, we were gratified and inspired by the kind reception accorded our first literary venture, The White Side of a Black Subject, which is now out of print after reaching twelve editions. Added to this was the still more generous treat ment of our second production, A New Negro for a New Cen tury. Nearly a hundred thousand copies of this book have been sold up to date, and the demand is still increasing. Having done what we could to vindicate the afro-american, we next began to consider the First American, when by chance a copy of Thatcher's Indian Biography fell into our hands. We read this book with much interest, and were impressed with two facts. First of all, we noticed that while the author gave the lives of a few chiefs well known to this generation, he filled the book up with village or sub chiefs, of whom even historians of this age never heard. Then, too, the book in question was seventy-four years old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
