    This text is based on the following book(s):

    This volume is a collection of several different kinds of important historical documents published by the Minnesota Historical Society. It is devoted to the Ojibwe (Chippewa) Indians, and contains both William W. Warren's "History of the Ojibways Based Upon Traditions And Oral Statements" and the Rev. Edward D. Neill's "History of the Ojibways, And Their Connection With Fur Traders, Based Upon Official And Other Records." William Warren, whose biographical sketch precedes his monograph, was a part-Ojibwe member of the Legislature. Fluent in the Ojibwe language, he served as an interpreter and maintained close contact with Native American relatives. From them and other acquaintances, he collected religious beliefs, oral history, customs, and legends, presenting them for a nineteenth-century audience. He pays particular attention in this monograph to diplomatic, political, and military issues and events and also to the totemic or clan system and to the fur trade. The Rev. Edward D. Neill (1823-1893), a prominent historian and president of Macalester College, compiled brief information about the Ojibwes and their relation to the fur trade, arranging the information chronologically and frequently citing the sources from which it was taken. The volume is indexed.
