First reader in the English and Blackfoot languages
A bilingual English and Blackfoot first reader published in Montreal in 1886 by C.O. Beauchemin & Son, likely for Blackfoot-speaking children learning to read. Its pictures are black-and-white wood engravings in oval and framed panels: one shows a woman and two children beside a church and river, the other a wooden house and a cast-iron stove, offering designers plain Victorian domestic and rural scenes with fine line hatching.
