About the author
George Gibbs
1815–1873
A Harvard-trained lawyer who headed west during the Gold Rush, he became one of the most useful early recorders of Native languages and cultures in the Pacific Northwest. His work blends firsthand observation, scientific curiosity, and the rough realities of life on the American frontier.
