Book First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Bandelier, Adolph F. (illustrator). First Edition Stated. 462 Pages Indexed. Book is in brand new condition. Map endpapers. Dust jacket flap price is clipped and instead replaced with 15.00 in red ink is written in. No other defects noted. No marks. A day-to-day field notebook, as well as an intimate diary of Bandelier's daily observations and moods, the Journal provide a firsthand account of a pioneering anthropologist's reactions to the Southwest. They contain the joys and frustrations Bandelier encountered in his early attempts to understand people and their environment. Bandelier traveled extensively in New Mexico during the years covered in the Journals. He visited nearly all of the northern pueblos, lived at Santo Domingo for a short time, and spent many months at Cochiti where he observed and recorded ceremonies and delved into the social organization of the pueblo. With little more scientific training than a keen intelligence, deep interest, and an ability to observe with care, Bandelier applied himself to anthropology with a passion that lasted throughout his life. Establishing the foundations on which a new science would someday rise was a task which fell to Bandelier, one of the first systematic anthropologists in America. His most important contribution lies in his attempt to combine several disciplines-history, ethnology, archaeology, and the Spanish literature of the Conquest-in studies of America's ancient cultures. His application of sound ethnological practices to the interpretation of archaeological ruins set him sharply apart from romanticizers of the American Indian. Illustrated with 21 Photographs, 2 Maps and more than 80 Drawings by Bandelier.

Book First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Bandelier, Adolph F. (illustrator). First Edition Stated. 528 Pages Indexed. Book is in brand new condition. Endpaper maps. Dust jacket flap price is $20. This is the second volume of Adolph E. Bandelier's field notebooks and intimate diaries that pertain to his expeditions in the Southwest. Bandelier's observations, covering the years 1883 and 1884, provide a firsthand picture of a pioneering anthropologist's reactions to historical places and persons, as well as to the joys and frustrations he encountered while gathering ethnological data. Almost everything Bandelier saw fascinated him. Establishing the foundations of a new science was a task that fell to Bandelier, one of the first systematic anthropologists in America. His application of contemporary ethnological practices to the interpretation of archaeological ruins has set him sharply apart from popular romanticizers of the American Indian. During 1883 and 1884 Bandelier traveled extensively in New Mexico, Mexico, and Arizona- with brief trips to Illinois and Europe. While working in New Mexico, he came into contact with men like Lewis H. Morgan, Frank Hamilton Cushing, Jesse Fewkes, and Charles Lummis whose names are legendary with the inception of American anthropology. About fifty of Bandelier's charmingly casual drawings, reproduced from his originals in the margins and on the backs of the pages of his note- books, are integrated with the text. Also included are sixteen period-piece photographs, a map of his routes in 1883, and a map of northeast Sonora and northwest Chihuahua. The Journals, rich in details on the ceremonies and social organizations of the Indians he observed and enlivened with many cogent comments on the lives of his contemporaries, have been so carefully edited and annotated that they will not only give knowledge and pleasure to the general reader but will also serve present and future archaeologists and historians as a valuable reference.
