Half-title, added t.-p. and preface in English. Added t.-p. reads: Radical words of the Mohawk language, with their derivatives. By Revised James Bruyas ... New York, Cramoisy Press, 1862.
"The present volume ... was written evidently in the latter part of the seventeenth century, and most probably on the banks of the Mohawk ... The grammatical sketch is rather a series of notes. The main work ... comprises the primitive words of the language ... with derivatives from each word ... Except in strict alphabetical arrangement, it is a very full Mohawk dictionary, written in Latin, but with the meaning of the words in French."--Pref.
