Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Long Lance' is a compelling and immersive narrative that offers a firsthand account of the life and traditions of the Blackfoot people during the final years of their independence on the Great Plains. This work serves as both a personal memoir and a detailed cultural study, capturing the essence of a world transitioning under the pressure of westward expansion.The book details the rigorous upbringing of a young warrior, from the early lessons of childhood to the intense rites of passage that define tribal leadership. Readers are treated to vivid descriptions of buffalo hunts, sun dances, and the intricate social structures that governed Indigenous life. Through powerful storytelling, 'Long Lance' explores themes of bravery, spiritual connection to the land, and the enduring strength of heritage. It provides an invaluable perspective on the customs, languages, and philosophies of the Plains Indians, making it a significant contribution to the literature of Indigenous North America and a vital record of a vanishing way of life.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Photographic plates. Colorful dust jacket entirely different from that of the 1956 Faber reprint. The Blackfoot lived in the United States and Canada, and much of the book concerns the pressures they came under from the Canadian government. The close of the book is a description of the manhunt of Almighty Voice. Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance was actually an African-American, born Sylvester Clark Long in North Carolina in 1890. In early life he assumed a Native American identity, passing himself off as half-Cherokee. On settling in Canada, he began a journalistic career. As a journalist in Alberta and Manitoba, Blackfoot territory, he became well acquainted with the Blackfoot and Cree and repressive Canadian policy toward First Nation people, finally assuming a fraudulent Blackfoot identity. He achieved celebrity status under this false identity with the publication of this book.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 2nd Edition. Irwin Cobb, forward; Norman Mommens, illustrations. An investigation revealed that his father had not been a Blackfoot chief, but a school janitor in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Some neighbors from his home town testified that they thought his background may have included African ancestry, which meant by southern racial standards, he was black. Although the studio did not publicize its investigation, the accusations led many of his socialite acquaintances to abandon Long. Author Irvin S. Cobb, a native of Kentucky active in New York, is said to have lamented, "We're so ashamed! We entertained a nigger!".…

This copy is inscribed on the front free endpaper: "For: Hon. Charles A. Curtis / of whom we are proud / Buffalo Child Long Lance / Sept. 18, '28." Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance (1890-1932), born Sylvester Clark Long, was a man of African American and Native American descent who achieved prominence as a writer, journalist, and actor. He famously reinvented himself as a Blackfoot Indian, claiming the identity of Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance. This autobiography, "Long Lance," published in 1928, detailed his purported Native American heritage and experiences, however, his true background was later exposed, leading to scandal and personal downfall. This copy was inscribed to the future Vice President Charles Curtis (1860-1936), the 31st Vice President of the United States from 1929 to 1933 under President Herbert Hoover. Born in Topeka, Kansas, Curtis had a diverse heritage, being of Native American (Kaw, Osage, and Potawatomi) and European ancestry. This background made him the first multiracial person and the first person of acknowledged non-European ancestry to reach the vice presidency. Before serving as Vice President, Curtis served in the United States House of Representatives and the Senate. He was the Senate Majority Leader from 1924-1929. First edition of Long Lance, the apocryphal memoirs of Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance, inscribed to Vice President Charles A. Curtis. (illustrator). Signed.…
