These list, figure, and describe the 

 types of chipped and polished stone 

 implements, and the pottery, shell, 

 bone, metal, and wooden utensils 

 found in New York State. Bulletin 

 32 contains a list of all the Indian 

 village and camp sites, shell-heaps, 

 rock and cave shelters, and cemeteries 

 then recorded from the entire State, 

 with a map upon which the locations 

 of these are plotted. This series is 

 invaluable to the student, especially 

 to one engaged in research work.

 ican History. Harpers : The American 

 Nation Nation Series; Vol. I. 



"This volume contains a careful 

 review of the physical features of 

 North America, which is exceedingly 

 helpful to the student in understanding 

 the development of the various colo- 

 nies. This is supplemented by a survey 

 of the principal lines of communica- 

 tion Indian trails, portages, water- 

 ways, and mountain passes which 

 have been of the utmost importance 

 in determining the course of events 

 in American history * Of 



particular value is Professor Farrand's 

 able discussion of the American 

 Indians. Reasoning from a great mass 

 of collected data, he reaches sane 

 and conservative conclusions. The 

 author has made a point of condensa- 

 tion, and has supplied the want of a 

 thorough, systematic study of the 

 Indians in a small compass."

At the present writing this is the 

 most complete source of information 

 on the Delaware Indians from the 



time of their migration from New

 the Ohio Valley.

The most recent account of the 

 Delaware, but merely preliminary 

 sketches, forerunners of a much larger 

 work based on personal archaeological 

 research about New York City and 

 ethnological study among the surviving 

 Delaware of Canada and Oklahoma, 

 which, when given to the public, will 

 be the dernier mot on the subject.

 Indians.
