Search for the Native American Purebloods

Oklahoma artist Charles Banks Wilson has assembled seventy-seven remarkable pencil portraits consisting primarily of pureblood American Indians drawn from life and accompanied by narratives of his visits with each subject. The first edition, Search for the Purebloods, served as a catalog for an exhibition of his art at the United States Capitol. This third edition, which is published with the generous assistance of Julian J. Rothbaum, contains thirteen additional drawings by Wilson and a new afterword.
