| Summary | "The Native Races [of the Pacific states], Volume 1, Wild Tribes" by Hubert Howe Bancroft is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work aims to document and analyze the aboriginal inhabitants of the Pacific States, encompassing vast territories from Alaska to Darien, including Mexico and Central America. The text is intended to provide a detailed ethnological report, focusing on the diverse Native American tribes and their cultures before European colonization. At the start of the volume, Bancroft introduces the scope and purpose of his work. He discusses the significance of exploring the characteristics, population, and customs of the numerous indigenous tribes inhabiting the region, noting that before European contact, these tribes formed a complex and rich social tapestry. The preface emphasizes the challenges Bancroft faced in gathering and organizing an extensive array of resources to construct a comprehensive overview, while also establishing a clear intent to separate factual reporting from speculation, highlighting the importance of preserving these narratives as Europe's dominance led to a rapid decline of indigenous cultures.
