Description
The precocious nephew of Washington Irving creates vivid and varied sketches of Pawnee life. Inexperienced but astute and enthusiastic, 20-year-old John Treat Irving volunteered as a secretary on an 1833 expedition to the disputed and violence-ridden Pawnee hunting grounds. He describes what he observed there with the awe and excitement of an unbiased young person.
