The Autobiography has therefore been re-cast and illustrated, in the hope and prayer that the Lord will use it to inspire the Boys and Girls of Christendom with a whole-hearted enthusiasm for the Conversion of the Heathen World to Jesus Christ. A few fresh incidents have been introduced ; the whole contents have been rearranged to suit a new class of readers ; and the service of a gifted Artist has been employed, to make the book every way attractive to the young. For full details as to the Missionary's work and life, the COMPLETE EDITION must still of course be referrcd to.

M V S - Marblehead Vital Statistics G C. - Capt. George Cloutman's Letter Book G B - Glover Broughton INTRODUCTION The information contained in this volume has been obtained by careful and persistent research from widely distributed sources viz: the Marblehead and Salem and Beverly Custom House Records, original books of the Marble- head Marine Insurance Company, covering five thousand policies running from 1800 to 1840, list of Marblehead Soldiers and Sailors in the Revolutionary War (compiled in 1912-13 by the author), old log books, old letter books, old newspapers, list of Privateersmen of 1812 made up by Capt. Glover Broughton in a memorial to the 34th, 35th and 36th Congresses asking for grants of land for services rendered, and from the descendants of the men mentioned. This volume is intended to be a fairly accurate list of the Old Sea Captains of Marblehead, and the vessels in which they sailed, going to and from foreign ports. The list of the names of the men is very nearly complete, but the list of the vessels is not as satisfactory, it being at this late date practically impossible to obtain complete information. Of the five hundred men mentioned, but two are alive at this time, Captain John D.

BODMER, KARL. Wak-Tae-Geli, A Sioux Warrior [Tableau 8 ]. London: Ackermann & Co. 1839. Aquatint engraving with contemporary hand-coloring, 24.6 x 18 inches, with blindstamp “C.Bodmer/Direct”. Fine condition. § First edition, an illustration from the celebrated book, Travels in the Interior of North America, 1832-1834, by Maximilian, Prince of Wied, Germany, after Bodmer’s watercolors. Prince Maximilian was a German explorer and naturalist who hired the Swiss artist Karl Bodmer (1809-1893) for an expedition to examine and describe the wildlife and Indian tribes of the American West. For 13 months, the men travelled up the Missouri River from St. Louis to Montana, recording the people and landscapes they encountered with unprecedented sensitivity and detail, just on the eve of rapid white Western expansion and genocidal conquest. “For over a century Bodmer’s aquatints have been regarded as one of the most significant contributions to the iconography of the western frontier.” In his portraits of American Indians, Bodmer “achieved a level of accuracy and sensitivity that no other artist of the American frontier has ever surpassed.
