WILD INDIAN LIFE. 



PAWNEE 



HERO STORIES AND FOLK-TALES. 



With Notes on the Origin, Customs and 

 Character of the Pawnee People. 



By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL ("YO.") 



Cloth, 417 pages. 



Illustrated. 



Price $2.00. 



Pawnee customs and beliefs are richly illustrated by the folk-tales 

 and m the copious notes Mr. Grinnell gives an uncommonly spirited ac 

 count of Pawnee life in peace and in war. There is an account of the 

 defense of a Pawnee village by 200 sick men, cripples, old men and 

 squaws, against 600 Sioux warriors, which for sheer gallantry and in- 

 domitable pluck will match almost anything in military history The 

 „ Pawnee warriors were all away at the time, and the Sioux counted upon 

 - a S ea f 7 vlctor y- But fcQe Pawnee cripples and women actually beat them 

 oft after a hard day's fighting, and at last so terrorized them that the 

 bold assailants fled in panic arid sustained a heavy loss. Mr. Grinnell 

 also has written a picturesque and vivacious sketch of one of the last 

 Pawnee buffalo hunts, in which the Indians commonly reverted to prim- 

 itive -weapons and usages, often hunting quite naked with no other arms 

 than their bo ws and arrows. A particularly interesting part of the book 

 is that which treats of the Pawnee doctors or medicine men. The state- 

 ments of Mr. Grinnell show the possession by some of these men of a 

 kind of skill in sleight-of-hand far beyond that usually attributed to In- 

 dians; some of the facts here described are as puzzling and unaccount- 

 able as those performed by the famous jugglers and fakirs of Hindostan, while one of their 

 tricks is a close parellel to the East Indian mango ieat. . . . Those who desire to learn 

 of the many other wonders done by the Indian doctors must refer to its pages for themselves. 

 As it is certainly one of the best works on Indian life, legend and character that has been 

 written for a long time, it should obtain a wide circulation.— N. Y. Tribune.

OPINIONS OP THE PRESS: 



It is the first, so far as we know, of a class of 

 books of which the need is felt in every depart- 

 ment of natural history.— Troy Press. 



To all dwellers by the water and in the country 

 and especially all who shoot, the book will supply 

 a great need, and every one who is interestedih 

 birds will be interested in it.— Boston Evening 

 Traveller. 



The book should find its way to a choice place 

 in every sportsman's library— Chicago Inter- 

 Ocean. 



There is a delightful dearth of dead languages 

 in this book. The sportsman who looks between 

 the covers for a description of some game bird— 

 a description which will enable him to identify 

 the creature should he meet it in the woods or on 

 the water — is not compelled to shut the book, 

 drop a bad word or two upon it and go in search 

 of some Greek and Latin dictionaries to find out 

 what the description means.— New York Herald.
