Bache. American Wonderland

Today's free book is American Wonderland by Richard Meade Bache (1871). For the table of contents, check at the bottom of this post below the image.

You can use this book to get a sense of what stories about the "red man" were being read by a general audience in 1871.

The book is available at Hathi Trust (I have not checked for other online sources).
