Philadelphia, Indian Rights Association, 1893. First edition. Wraps. octavo; pp; 23; Original printed wrappers. Morris discusses this event in the "Rise of Theodore Roosevelt", pp.454-455.

He exposed all of this with his characteristic outrage at the corruption that poisoned these remote outposts. A sympathetic report by TR of his visits to various Sioux, Cheyenne, Osage, and Santee tribes. Roosevelt comments on the prevalence of half-breeds over their white or native counterparts, poor health care on reservations, and the relatively low levels of racism against the Indian found outside reservations. Quite scarce. Edge wear; wrappers chipped; front wrapper detached but present with a "Withdrawn" stamp on the wrapper verso but no hint of what institution it was withdrawn from; text block near fine.
