FIRST OCTAVO EDITION, after the folio edition of 1837-1844. ."Both authors saw their book as a way of preserving an accurate visual record of a rapidly disappearing culture. The text, which was written by Hall based on information supplied by McKenney, takes the form of a series of biographies of leading figures amongst the Indian nations, followed by a general history of the North American Indians. The work is now famous for its color plate portraits of the chiefs, warriors and squaws of the various tribes, faithful copies of original oils by Charles Bird King painted from life in his studio in Washington (McKenney commissioned him to record the visiting Indian delegates) or worked up by King from the watercolors of the young frontier artist, James Otto Lewis. All but four of the original paintings were destroyed in the disastrous Smithsonian fire of 1865, so their appearance in this work preserves what is probably the best likeness of many of the most prominent Indian leaders of the early 19th century. -- ReeseThomas McKenney assembled portraits of Native Americans by taking visiting Native American dignitaries to the studio of Charles Bird King in Washington, who would paint their portraits in oil. These formed part of a portrait gallery at the Smithsonian, which were all destroyed in the 1865 Smithsonian fire. McKenney endeavored to recreate the portraits in lithographs, resulting in the work's "long and checkered publication history [which] spanned twelve years and involved multiple lithographers (mainly Peter S. Duval and James T. Bowen) and publishers. " (Reese, Stamped With A National Character 24).

In 1857, the Mercantile Library Association of the City of Brooklyn was established, and the Mercantile Library of Brooklyn subsequently opened in a building shared by the Brooklyn Athanaeum and Reading Room. In 1865, the Brooklyn Library Association of the Eastern District was established for the purpose of establishing a library in Brooklyn's Eastern District, and in 1868, the Law Library in Brooklyn was established.…
