On the Cover:
This watercolor portrait of an unidentified Indian who, judging
from the hairstyle, was a Pawnee warrior, was painted by William
Henry Tappan in 1848, probably near the Pawnee village on the
Platte River in present Polk County, Nebraska. Tappan, a civilian
artist, accompanied the Missouri Mounted Volunteers from Fort
Kearny on the Missouri River (at present Nebraska City) to a site
on the central Platte River, where they began construction of
a new fort. His duties included making drawings and collections
to illustrate the botanical, zoological, and geographical features
of the country. (Courtesy of Ellen F. Tappan)
