The most interesting parts of Catlin’s famous book about the North American Indians and their history and habits and customs in war, peace, and hunting, arranged for boys and superbly illustrated from reproductions of the author’s drawings. George Catlin, the Indian painter, lived among the Indians and studied them at close range, and his story of the dangers and hardships of the war-path, the hunting and trapping, and life in the villages when they were at peace with their neighbors, and the illustrations cannot fail to interest the American boy who is fond of healthy out-door sports and adventures. The book is edited and arranged for boys by Mary Gay Humphreys.

Transcriber’s Note
The punctuation of the index, especially the use of semi-colons and commas, seemed inconsistent, and has been regularized to use commas to separate page references.
Spelling, in quotations from original documents, has been left as printed, due to the idiosyncratic nature of the orthography of the various times. Occasionally, odd (to the modern eye) phrases are seemingly misquoted. Our 'as soon as' is most frequently spelled, in Hakluyt, 'assoone as', and where another variant (e.g., 'assoonas' on p. 319) appears, the typical spelling is provided.
Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original.
