$a Volume I had first been published in America in 1836. Volume II followed between 1838 and 1842, and Volume III appeared in 1844. Volume I of this London edition first came out in parts during 1837 and 1838. The frontispiece shows a 'War Dance Of The Sauks And Foxes'. The plates are portraits showing members of the Seneca, Shawnee, Osage, Chipewa, Choctaw, Creek, Sioux, Chippeway, Cherokee, Winnebago, Otto(e), Shawanoe, Sauk, Ojibway, Pawnee and Musquakee nations. Several show chiefs; four show women. All are coloured lithographs. C.B. King's portraits of American rulers were almost all destroyed by fire in 1865. |

$a 28 December 1837: 'Produced Specimens of a Work on the Northern Tribes of America, now in the course of Publication by M.r Campbell at 35s. per Number - M.r Leslie moved & was seconded by M.r Etty, that the Academy subscribe for a Copy of the above work for the Library ...' (RA Council Minutes VIII, 386). It is worth noting that although born in England C.R. Leslie had been brought up in Maryland, USA before returning to England in 1811 and enrolling as a student in the RA Schools two years later. 26 June 1838: '4 first numbers of M.r Campbell's work of the Indian Tribes' - payment of bill for £7.0.0 approved (RA Council Minutes, VIII, 418). 29 August 1838: payment of £1.15s. for a further [i.e. 5th] number passed for payment (RA Council Minutes, VIII, 435). The front pastedown is inscribed in pencil, 'CLE', i.e. Charles Lock Eastlake RA, who served as Librarian of the Royal Academy from July 1842 to December 1844. The fact that there is no volume number on the spine suggests that by the time it was sent to the binder it had been decided not to continue the Academy's subscription for the work. |
