1 Minshull, Evelyn WhiteThe Cornhusk Doll
Scottdale, PA Herald Press 1987 0836134311 / 9780836134315 First Edition Hard Cover Fine No Jacket (as Issued?) Edwin B. Wallace Signed by Illustrator
First printing. Glossy beige binding with black lettering and illustrated cover; orange endpapers. 69 pages. Illustrated. Written with a Christian focus, this is a story of friendship overcoming hatred. Caught and injured in Pa's bear trap, an Indian and his daughter are forced to stay with a pioneer family, where hatred finally gives way to friendship due to young Mary and her cornhusk doll. More so than as a book for children, this book is interesting as a reflection of the attitudes of white people towards Native Americans, since in this story the Indian is portrayed as suspicious and filled with hate while the pioneer family is portrayed as kind and tolerant of the Indian, giving the impression that during frontier times the whites were faultless. The main beauty of this book are the handsome monochrome drawings on every page which successfully recreate the flavor of earlier times. This copy is signed by the illustrator, Edwin B. Wallace, in a beautiful cursive, dated 6/87, and with the Bible verse 1 John 4 :7 written below it. This copy is in fine condition. "To Dick" is written on the front free endpaper, also in cursive, and it is possible that this may have also been written by Wallace. 
Price: 39.50 USD
