Excerpt from The Indians of Manhattan Island and VicinityThe aborigines themselves have so nearly passed into oblivion, that no help can be obtained from their scattered and degenerate remnants in exile in the west, so that we must turn to two sources for our knowledge: the writings of the first white settlers, already mentioned, and the archaeological remains, the imperishable objects of stone, clay, bone and antler, which the vanished red men have left behind them on their ancient dwelling places.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
