I had all my life been a theoretical rose-lover, but this labor of love for the rose impelled me to make my relationship practical. This increasingly pleasant rose contact has reached into every state and province of the United States and Canada, as well as across both oceans to all of Europe, to the Philippines, Japan and CHina, to Australia, Ceylon and New Zealand. It has made possible the assembling annually of a record of American rose progress, with side-lights from all the world. Continually, as I have faced the question mark which seems to be a part of the countenance of every American rose-lover, I have felt the need for an interpretation from the American standpoint of the up-to-date rose-lore that has thus far been developed." ; Contents: Is the rose in America? - George Washington's rose - American rose production - Foreign roses prevail - Special rose locations - Superior American hardy climbers - Making the rose universal - The usual roses - Hybrid teas - Pernetianas - Tea roses - Polyanthas - Hybrid perpetuals - Hybrid rugosas - Noisettes - Moss roses - hardy climbers - Crimson rambler - Wichurianas - Climbing hybrid teas - other climbers - The unusual roses - The Crapo Catlague - Sweetbriers - Cherokee - American species - Old-world species - Hugonis - Setipoda - Cathayensis - Van Fleet hybrids - Austrian briers - The rose plant itself - Own-root plants - Budded plants - Which to plant - Potted roses - Various stocks - Capt.

FIRST OCTAVO EDITION, after the folio edition of 1837-1844. ."Both authors saw their book as a way of preserving an accurate visual record of a rapidly disappearing culture. The text, which was written by Hall based on information supplied by McKenney, takes the form of a series of biographies of leading figures amongst the Indian nations, followed by a general history of the North American Indians. The work is now famous for its color plate portraits of the chiefs, warriors and squaws of the various tribes, faithful copies of original oils by Charles Bird King painted from life in his studio in Washington (McKenney commissioned him to record the visiting Indian delegates) or worked up by King from the watercolors of the young frontier artist, James Otto Lewis. All but four of the original paintings were destroyed in the disastrous Smithsonian fire of 1865, so their appearance in this work preserves what is probably the best likeness of many of the most prominent Indian leaders of the early 19th century. -- ReeseThomas McKenney assembled portraits of Native Americans by taking visiting Native American dignitaries to the studio of Charles Bird King in Washington, who would paint their portraits in oil. These formed part of a portrait gallery at the Smithsonian, which were all destroyed in the 1865 Smithsonian fire. McKenney endeavored to recreate the portraits in lithographs, resulting in the work's "long and checkered publication history [which] spanned twelve years and involved multiple lithographers (mainly Peter S. Duval and James T. Bowen) and publishers. " (Reese, Stamped With A National Character 24).
