Product Information
Excerpt from A Check List of Manuscripts in the Edward E. Ayer CollectionFor many years the manu script resources of the Edward E. Ayer Collection have been known only to the few specialists who have been able to consult them. This check list, therefore, has been compiled to acquaint a greater number of students with this material. It claims no merit beyond that of a finding list and in many instances the descriptions are not definitive. An ana lytic catalogue and calendar will be completed for library use as soon as time permits.About fifty years ago Mr. Ayer began to collect his library with the idea of specialization in the archaeology and ethnology of the American Indian. From this original emphasis upon the history and life of the Indian which involved many phases of exploration and colo nial and frontier history, he expanded his interests to include such marginal subjects as pre-columbian geography and the development of the cartography of America. He further added supplemental subjects, among which were the history of the Hawaiian and Philippine Islands and the ethnology of their aboriginal peoples. Important collections were thus accumulated which go beyond the original interest. This is true of the manuscripts no less than of the printed books.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
