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 Childs 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).\nThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45255132610613,"sku":"ByrdShop_081351164X","price":21.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780813511641_47c75135-aa12-436d-ba9a-081f8222cb5d.jpg?v=1779922367","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/hobomok-and-other-writings-on-indians-american-women-writers-series-9780813511641","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
