George Copway (Kah-Ge-Ga-Gah-Bowh; 1818-1863), an Ojibway chief, states, "A sketch of my nation's history, describing its home, its country, and its peculiarities, and in narrating its traditional legends I may awaken in the American heart a deeper feeling for the race of red men." Copway's book has several pages of picture-writing symbols. Among the many interesting topics are his recommendations for Christianizing the Indians and his arguments for an exclusive area (reservation) between what is now Minnesota and Nebraska. In this first published, book-length history of the Ojibwa, Copway is far more critical of whites than he was in his autobiography. Field 364. Pilling p 93. Howes C-772.
