The four volumes of the Maximilian, Prince of Wied's Travels in the
Interior of America during the years 1832-1834 follow the German
explorer and naturalist's travels to the Great Plains region,
including his journey up the Missouri River, with Swiss painter
Karl Bodmer. While Maximilian's intention had been to describe the
flora and fauna of the interior of American, he instead
concentrated on describing the culture, language, customs, and
appearance of the indigenous people he encountered along the way.
Maximilian's work become well known for his thorough study of the
Mandans and Hidatsas tribes, as well as for his less complete
analysis of the Arikaras tribe. Of particular interest is his
description of the one of the most important ceremonies of the
Mandans, the O-kee-pa. While his writings helped to reinforce the
Romantic ideal of the "noble savage," Wied's Travels also records
the impact contact with fur-traders and settlers began have on
Native American tribes and the land around them. vol. 1 of 4
