Core Historical Document on Lenni Lenape Indians,
By
This review is from: William Penn's Own Account of the Lenni Lenape or Delaware Indians (Paperback)
This is a core document concerning the Lenni Lenape (Delaware) Indians in that it was written by a known, astute observer during the time that they were still practicing their ancient customs. It consists mainly of a lengthy account including details of crafts, housing, customs, religion, governance, etc. His view of these Native Americans was quite positive. Also included are various treaties and letters that reflect on the Lenape. A forward and introduction establish the context of the document for the modern reader. As would be expected, the account includes some statements that are silly or objectionable to modern ears (such as a suggestion that they might be one of the tribes of Israel).
