Raymond William Stedman examines images of American Indians from the first contact with whites, who viewed them as a "curiosity," through incarnations including the Noble Savage and, to the Puritans, an almost Satanic presence lurking in the woods. Since the time of Pocahontas, the "Indian maiden" has been idealized as lovely, compassionate--and ready to sacrifice her feelings.
