Synopsis

Traders to the Navajos: The Story of the Wetherills of Kayenta is a non-fiction book written by Francis Gillmor. The book tells the story of the Wetherill family, who were traders with the Navajo people in the early 20th century. The Wetherills were instrumental in opening up the Navajo reservation to outsiders and played a significant role in the development of the area.The book begins by introducing the Wetherill family and their background. The family had a long history of trading with Native American tribes and were well-respected in the area. The book then goes on to describe the Wetherill's interactions with the Navajo people and their efforts to establish a trading post in Kayenta, Arizona.The book also covers the Wetherill's efforts to preserve Navajo culture and history. They were instrumental in collecting and preserving Navajo artifacts and were among the first to recognize the artistic value of Navajo rugs and jewelry.Traders to the Navajos is a fascinating look at the history of the American Southwest and the role that traders played in the development of the area. It is a well-written and engaging book that will appeal to anyone interested in Native American history, the history of the American West, or the history of trade and commerce in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
