Early American History Note

This dictionary of Native American language dates to 1771 and is from the Great Lakes region, an area often called the pays d’en haut. The dictionary is in French. The collection came to the APS from the Academy of Natural Sciences. It is bound in a rather unique white, soft leather cover.
