The present volumes give a succinct account of my travels and work among the remote peoples of the Sierra Madre del Norte and the countries adjacent to the south and east as far as the City of Mexico. Most of what I tell here refers to a part of the Republic that is never visited by tourists and is foreign even to most Mexicans. Primitive people are becoming scarce on the globe. On the American continents there are still some left in their original state. If they are studied before they, too, have lost their individuality or been crushed under the heels of civilisation, much light may be thrown not only upon the early people of this country but upon the first chapters of the history of mankind.
In the present rapid development of Mexico it cannot be prevented that these primitive people will soon disappear by fusion with the great nation to whom they belong. The vast and magnificent virgin forests and the mineral wealth of the mountains will not much longer remain the exclusive property of my dusky friends; but I hope that I shall have rendered them a service by setting them this modest monument, and that civilised man will be the better for knowing of them.
That I have been able to accomplish what I did I owe, in the first place, to the generosity of the people of the United States, to their impartiality and freedom from prejudice, which enables foreigners to work shoulder to shoulder with their own advance guard. I wish to extend my thanks in particular to the American Geographical Society of New York, and still more especially to the American Museum of Natural History of New York, with whom I have had the honour of being connected more or less closely for ten years. To its public-spirited and whole-souled President, Mr.?Morris K. Jesup, I am under profound obligations. I also take pleasure in acknowledging my indebtedness to Mr.?Andrew Carnegie, who initiated my Mexican ventures with a subscription of $1,000; furthermore to the Hon.?Cecil Baring, Mr.?Frederick A. Constable, Mr.?William E. Dodge, Mr.?James Douglass, Mrs.?Joseph W. Drexel, Mr.?George J. Gould, Miss Helen Miller Gould, Mr.?Archer M. Huntington, Mr.?Frederick E. Hyde, Mr.?D. Willis James, Col. James K. Jones, the Duke of Loubat, Mr.?Peter Marié, Mr.?Henry G. Marquand, Mr.?F. O. Matthiessen, Mr.?Victor Morawetz, Mr.?J. Pierpont Morgan, Mrs.?Edwin Parsons, Mr.?Archibald Rogers, Mr.?F. Augustus Schermerhorn, Mr.?William C. Schermerhorn, Mr.?Charles Stewart Smith, Mr.?James Speyer, Mr.?George W. Vanderbilt, Mr.?William C. Whitney, of New York; to Mr.?Frederick L. Ames, Mrs.?John L. Gardner, Mrs.?E. Mason, Mr.?Nathaniel Thayer, Mr.?Samuel D. Warren, Dr.?Charles G. Weld, of Boston; to Mr.?Allison D. Armour and Mr.?Franklin MacVeagh, of Chicago; to Mrs.?Phoebe Hearst, Mr.?Frank G. New. lands, Mrs.?Abby M. Parrot, Mr.?F. W. Sharon, of San Francisco; to Mr.?Adolphus Busch, of St.?Louis; to Mr.?Theo. W. Davis, of Newport; and to the late Mr.?E. L. Godkin.
Much valuable support or assistance I have also received from Mrs.?Morris K. Jesup; Mrs.?Elizabeth Hobson, of Washington, D. C.; Miss Joanna Rotch, of Milton,
