Hobomok, A Tale of Early Times is the provocative story of an
upperclass white woman who marries an Indian chief, has a child,
then leaves him--with the child--for another man. This novel,
originally published in 1824, is a powerful first among
antipatriarchal and antiracist novels in American literature. In
addition, this collection contains seven remarkable short stories;
an extract on Indian women from Child's groundbreaking History of
the Condition of Women in Various Ages and Nations (1835); a
selection from her best-selling volume of journalistic sketches,
Letters from New-York (1843); and her eloquent Appeal for Indians
(1868). This revised edition of ""Hobomok"" and Other Writings on
Indians includes three new stories: ""The Church in the
Wilderness,"" ""Willie Wharton,"" and ""The Indians""--as well as
explanatory notes and an updated bibliography.
