A catechism of the Catholic religion, tr. into the Choctaw language ..

Catholic Church · 1916 · [Washington, D.C., National Capital Press] · 16 pictures

A Catholic catechism translated into the Choctaw language, published in Washington, D.C. in 1916 by the Catholic Church for Choctaw readers and religious instruction. Its woodcut-style pictures show saints and biblical scenes, including a saint among Native American figures beside a teepee, a seated Christ with apostles, and the Crucifixion with mourners, offering a designer clear models for simple black-and-white religious line illustration with dense hatching and strong contrast.
