Descripción del artículo del vendedor

8" x 5 ¼". Self wrappers. Pp. 8. Very good: lightly toned. This is a short work regarding legislation affecting Native Americans. It was written by the president of Women's National Indian Association (WNIA), Kate Foote. Foote (later Kate Foote Coe) was an educator who taught at Hartford Female Seminary and also taught formerly enslaved persons in Florida and South Carolina at the end of the Civil War. In 1886 she went to Alaska to learn about the educational needs of indigenous peoples there and she was president of the WNIA from 1886 to 1895. The WNIA was founded in 1879 by a group of American women opposed to the encroachment of white settlers on land set aside for Native Americans in Indian Territory. In the pamphlet, Foote shared that approximately 80 bills that could impact Native Americans went before Congress in its latest session. She discussed the impact of federal funds distributed to ensure the government complied with treaties and pointed out that the 1888 "Indian Bill" in Congress would cover Indian Affairs agents as well as allotments of land and cash given directly to tribal members. She briefly commented on numerous other bills including the one she considered the most important: "The bill to divide the great Sioux reservation . . . and throwing the rest into the public domain is the greatest bill that has passed this session. It is in the interest both of the Indian and the white man. The Sioux on this reservation have been proud, restless, easily excited to war and have hated work. They have received rations from the government, and made war upon it with philosophic impartiality. If the day has at last come when this tribe is willing to acknowledge itself so far converted as to be willing to till the soil for a living it has taken a great step forward."

Descripción de la tienda

You may notice that despite the name of our business, you won't find a lot of books here. While we do sell some printed matter, we specialize in selling original source materials that tell compelling American stories. Our principal abandoned a reasonably successful law career to do this full time because life is too short not jump out of bed excited to start a work day. Our slogan, “The Extraordinary History of the Every Day”, matches our approach to the trade: we seek to preserve the exceptional stories of everyday people. Most of these folks probably had no idea that their actions were anything other than ordinary. As you look through our website and catalogs you'll find a wealth of compelling narratives. Also note that we don't limit ourselves to those lost to history as our work has enhanced many a wiki page. Considering our present inventory, you might also think we only buy and sell material related to underrepresented social groups and social movements. That's because of the response we receive from customers for this type of material and we would do nearly anything to avoid practicing law again. Truth be told, we get excited about preserving all sorts of interesting stories so the more you would educate us about your collecting interests, wants and what gets you excited, the more likely we'd recognize this material as something we should bring to market. So please feel free to reach out and tell us what you collect. Also, if you have items that you think may be of interest to us, please do not hesitate to write or call.…
