During the second decade of 20th century, Arthur C Parker, an anthropologist and museum curator, wrote these three monographs which were published as Bulletins by the New York State Museum. Much sought after by collectors and the Iroquois, they are presented here, in trilogy, for the first time since their original publication. In his introduction, William N Fenton describes Parker's professional career as an ethnologist, provides information on Parker's Indian background-he was probably one-fourth Seneca-and gives his own critical interpretation of the value of Parker's works.
