The introduction to this "New Edition" by editor Hodge presents an account of the creation of the original work including much biographical information about the authors and an extensive bibliographical discussion of numerous editions that followed in particular the history of the work's most notable feature: the color portraits of many Native Americans primarily tribal chiefs. Because the portraits which hung originally at the War Department and later at the Smithsonian Institution had been painted from life and predated the widespread use of photography in many instances they represent the only existing images of their subjects; and because most of the originals were destroyed in the 1865 Smithsonian fire only the published reproductions remain. This edition contained 123 color plates in all of which 72 are present in the two volumes on offer as are the two color maps at the end of Volume III.
