Toronto Samuel Rose 1886, 5 vols. xliii, 334, xii, 499, xxxii, 497, xxiii,489, xvii, 347, ii, 8. 19 cm. Some fixing in all vols., generally minor, binding occasionally cracked, minor wear to cover, owner's stamp of signature present. Vol 4: torn edge p. 341. Vol 5: pen marking on p. 265. Rev. William Case sought to evangelize the Native Americans to Christianity. Case's views, which would be highly unfashionable today, were actually quite progressive for the time, pushing European settlers to see Natives as full human beings. These efforts earned the admiration of Rev. Carroll, the first Catholic bishop for America, who wrote these volumes.
