Donated to Oberlin College in 1893 and transferred to the Ohio Historical Society (OHS) in 1942, the collection languished in storage until Nez Perce National Historic Park curators rediscovered it in 1976. The OHS loaned most of the artifacts to the National Park Service. Twelve years later, the OHS abruptly recalled the collection, demanding the full appraised value of $608,100. Given just six-months to raise the funds, the tribe mounted a brilliant grassroots campaign. One day before the deadline, they met their goal. The author draws on interviews with Nez Perce experts and extensive archival research to tell the fascinating Spalding-Allen Collection story. He also examines the ethics of acquiring, bartering, owning, and selling Native cultural history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6949,"template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[144,161,121],"product_tag":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/6948"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=6948"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloft.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=6948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
