by John Johnston, edited by Charlotte Reeve Conover. Softbound, 80 pages, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". John Johnston's 1845 memoir of his life and work as an Indian Agent remains a valuable insight into the lives of those whites and Indians who shaped the history of the Ohio country. Drawing from both his personal knowledge and stories related to him by the Natives, he described notable events and people of the Ohio frontier, information on the customs of the tribes, as well as samples of the Shawnee and Wyandot languages. His was a clear vision, born of his daily experiences at Upper Piqua, when the ten tribes inhabiting this part of the middle west were his next door neighbors. No. 702623
