Book Description

Excerpt from Among the an-Ko-Me-Nums: Or Flathead Tribes of Indians of the Pacific Coast I have been requested to write a few words of introduction to this deeply interesting volume, and I gladly comply, although the'task may seem to be quite superfluous. Thomas Crosby, or anything he may write, needs no introduction, at least in Meth odist circles. For a generation his name has been a household word, and from time to time brief accounts of his heroic labors have found their way through the press into many homes. But these accounts were fragmentary and incomplete. They presented some striking incidents, but no connected story of the man and his work. Such a story Crosby alone could supply, and many will be glad that he has been induced to begin it; and the hope will be general that other volumes may follow, covering what is by far the most interesting period of his life.
