Large 4to. Pp. xii, 64; (ii), 338. Red pebbled boards, lettered in gilt. Occasionally some light staining. First edition of this comprehensive work. Includes an interesting introduction about the history and language of the Sioux Indians, or Dakotas, as they call themselves. Zaunmüller p. 46 (1890 ed.).

Three works printed entirely in the Dakota language, including translations of various books of the Bible into the Santee dialect of the Dakota language. These three texts include first four books of Moses (Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy), the Book of Psalms and the New Testament. The translators, two standout names among the early Anglo students of the Dakota language, were Thomas S. Williamson and Stephen Return Riggs. Williamson, as the titlepage of the first work indicates, worked directly from the original Hebrew. He was a Presbyterian missionary, and was often referred to as "the father of the Dakota mission." He studied medicine at Yale, started his missionary work at Fort Snelling, in present-day Minnesota, and remained among the Indians until the Sioux Outbreak of 1862. Riggs, translator of the Psalms and the New Testament, was one of the earliest missionaries that the American Board of Commissioners of Foreign Missions sent to work among Native Americans. He lived among the Santee in the Dakota Territory from 1837 into the 1870s and is responsible for a huge body of language studies of, and translations into, the Santee tongue. Together, Riggs and Williamson were responsible for many of the early efforts to produce parts of the Bible in the Dakota language. The 1886 gift inscription at the rear of the book to "Miss Lowe" is from Baptiste (Pahajina) Lambert (1854-1928), a three-quarter blood Ihanktonwan (Yankton) Nakota, ".brought up in Indian ways [with] his education neglected until late in life.he had been for two years a pupil at a white school in Jubilee, [Illinois].He entered the Indian School here [the Yankton Reservation in present-day Marty, South Dakota] and left from the Junior Class July 9, [18]89.
