Among The Pimas Or The Mission To The Pima And Maricopa Indians is a historical book written by Charles H. Cook and published in 1893. The book is a first-hand account of Cook's experiences as a missionary among the Pima and Maricopa Indians in the late 19th century. The Pima and Maricopa tribes were located in what is now Arizona, and Cook's mission was to convert them to Christianity. The book provides a detailed description of the daily life and customs of the Pima and Maricopa Indians, as well as their interactions with the Spanish and American settlers who were encroaching on their land. Cook also describes the challenges he faced as a missionary, including language barriers and cultural differences. Throughout the book, Cook emphasizes the importance of respecting the traditions and beliefs of the native people, rather than imposing one's own culture and religion on them. He also highlights the resilience and perseverance of the Pima and Maricopa tribes in the face of adversity. Among The Pimas Or The Mission To The Pima And Maricopa Indians is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Native American tribes in the Southwest, as well as the history of Christian missions in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
