Irving, the nephew of Washington Irving, travelled west with Henry Ellsworth to make treaties with the Pawnees in 1833, a trip which formed the basis for his best known work, INDIAN SKETCHES (1835), and this book which, because of its narrative format rather than its attention to detail, is labeled as fiction.
