Red Boards. Please see our photos. Not an exlib Item. A clean, solid copy that shows minor foxing. 5 5/8 X 8 ½. Statement of author, Tekahionwake, important tribal historian and member of the Wolf Clan of the Mohawk, regarding Her work: "My aim, my joy, my pride is to sing the glories of my own people. Ours was the race that gave the world its measure of heroism, its standard of physical prowess. Ours was the race that taught the world that avarice veiled by any name is crime. Ours were the people of the blue air and the green woods, and ours the faith that taught men to live without greed and to die without fear. Ours were the fighting men that, man to man–yes, one to three–could meet and win against the world. But for our few numbers, our simple faith that others were as true as we to keep their honor bright and hold as bond inviolable their plighted word, we should have owned America to-day."
