"Missionary Henry Spalding shipped two barrels of "Indian curiosities" to Ohio in 1847. The author delves into the story of the exquisite Nez Perce shirts, dresses, baskets, and horse regalia, the tribe's grassroots campaign to restore their exploited cultural heritage, and the ethics of acquiring and selling Native cultural history"-- Provided by publisher |
