Lessons and prayers in the Tenni or Slavi language of the Indians of Mackenzie River in the North-West Territory of Canada
A religious primer of lessons and prayers printed in London in 1892 by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, written by Bishop William Carpenter Bompas for Dene readers of the Mackenzie River in Canada's North-West Territory. Its pictures are simple black line engravings of biblical scenes, with robed figures, a haloed central teacher, and a healing or leading gesture, offering a designer plain, legible woodcut-style figure groupings and clear gestures to adapt.
