They visit Washington, gaze upon the canvases of Seth Eastman in the Capitol and in the Corcoran Gallery, and fail to appreciate the fact that many of them are based upon sketches made in their home state In pre-territorial days. And doubtless, too, they fail to realize that to see original work by Eastman they need only visit the James Jerome Hill Reference Library in St. Paul, which has In Its collec tions no less than sixty water colors by this distinguished artist of the western frontier.^ Eastman was twenty-one years of age when he was grad uated from the United States Military Academy at West Point In July, 1829, attached to the First Infantry as a sec ond lieutenant, and sent to Fort Crawford, at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. There he began sketching the scenery and the natives, an avocation that he continued when he was transferred to Fort Snelling In the following year.

OLD FORT SNELLING from a Painting by Captain Seth Eastman
OLD FORT SNELLING From a painting by Captain Seth Eastman, reproduced in Mrs. Eastman's Dahcotah; or, Life and Legends of the Sioux around Fort Snelling OLD FORT SNELLING OLD FORT SNELLING 1819–1858 BY MARCUS L. HANSEN PUBLISHED AT IOWA CITY IOWA IN 1918 BY THE STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF IOWA THE TORCH PRESS CEDAR RAPIDS IOWA EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION [v] The establishment in 1917 of a camp at Fort Snelling for the training of officers for the army has aroused curiosity in the history of Old Fort Snelling. Again as in the days of the pioneer settlement of the Northwest the Fort at the junction of the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers has become an object of more than ordinary interest. Old Fort Snelling was established in 1819 within the Missouri Territory on ground which later became a part of the Territory of Iowa. Not until 1849 was it included within Minnesota boundaries. Linked with the early annals of Missouri, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, and the Northwest, the history of Old Fort Snelling is the common heritage of many commonwealths in the Upper Mississippi Valley. The period covered in this volume begins with the establishment of the Fort in 1819 and ends with the temporary abandonment of the site as a military post in 1858. BENJ. F. SHAMBAUGH OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT AND EDITOR THE STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF IOWA IOWA CITY IOWA [vi] AUTHOR'S PREFACE [vii] The position which the military post holds in western history is sometimes misunderstood. So often has a consideration of it been left to the novelist's pen that romantic glamour has obscured the permanent contribution made by many a lonely post to the development of the surrounding region.

INDEX MAN OF THE CLOUDS MARPIYAWICASTA 1750 Harold Hickerson has established that during the 18th and early 19th Centuries, there was a contested zone between the Ojibwa of roughly Wisconsin and the Dakota of roughly Minnesota that varied in size from 15,000 square miles to 35, 000 square miles. In this contested zone, because natives entering the region to hunt were “in constant dread of being surprised by enemies,” game was able to flourish. At this point, however, in a war between the Ojibwa and the Dakota for control over the wild rice areas of northern Minnesota (roughly a quarter of the caloric intake of these two groups was coming from this fecund wild rice plant of the swampy meadows) , the Ojibwa decisively won.

I have observed that in the country between the nations which are at war with each other the greatest number of wild animals are to be found.

An Extraordinary Painting of Cheyenne Warrior Roman Nose 32
William Reese Company Rare Books, Americana, Literature & Pictorial Americana 409 Temple Street New Haven, Connecticut 06511 203 / 789 · 8081 fax: 203 / 865 · 7653 e-mail: [email protected] web: www.reeseco.com Bulletin 27: Images of Native Americans Item 1. This bulletin is devoted to images of Native Americans from shortly after the discovery of the New World to the 20th-century artist’s vision of painter Robert Riggs. Within these broad param- eters we present images in woodcuts, engravings, lithographs, photographs, watercolors, and oil paintings. All of the earliest images are generic ideas of what Indians looked like. By the early 18th century images became much more personalized and were generally portraits of individu - als, frequently identifiable. The greatest works of individual portraiture are found in the projects of McKenney and Hall, Catlin, Bodmer, and J. O. Lewis in the fertile period from 1820 to 1850. All the images speak to both how Native Americans looked and how they were seen by the largely European artists who depicted them.
