Kate and Sue McBeth, Missionary Teachers to the Nez Perce Indians
Rose Huskey, Donna K. Smith, and Bill Kerr, University of Idaho.
This site provides full-text letters, diaries, government documents, and images on the lives and careers of Kate and Sue McBeth, missionaries and teachers among the Nez Perce Indians during the last quarter of the 19th century. Sue McBeth established a successful theological seminary for Nez Perce men, collected and organized a Nez Perce/English dictionary, and wrote numerous journal articles about her experience. Kate McBeth provided literacy education for Nez Perce women, directed a Sabbath School and Mission Society, and taught Euro-American domestic skills to Nez Perce women. The site is divided into five categories. “Personal Documents” provides more than 150 full-text letters, diary, and journal entries written by or about the sisters. “Government Documents” contains full-text treaties, over 70 commission and agency reports, legislative actions, and excerpts from a history of the Nez Perce. “People” offers biographies of 19 of the principle participants in the McBeth documents, including the McBeths themselves, key figures in the Nez Perce tribe, and goverment officials, as well as a five-work bibliography of books on the Nez Perce and the McBeth sisters. “Maps” offers images of six maps of Indian reservations, Oklahoma and Washington Territories, and Army War maps. “Images” contains 24 images of places, including cabins, churches, and scenery; 48 images of people; 4 facsimile images of handwritten Nez Perce legends; six Harpers Weekly illustrations; and 13 of Gustav Sohon’s illustrations from the Walla Walla Treaty negotiations of 1855. Each image has a roughly five-word caption describing it. This site does not have a search engine, but the subject headings within each section makes it easy to use. Ideal for research on Indian tribes and missionaries in the Pacific Northwest.

Jimmy Makino: A Japanese-American Nesei in the 20th Century
www.culturalbridge.com.
This site is a part of the Cultural Bridge Productions project which explores twentieth century Asian cultures through interviews, travelers’ letters and photographs (over 500 in the project’s gallery). One of eight other historical narratives, this section presents a four page interview with Jimmy Makino, a Japanese-American Nesei. Makino’s story offers a personal perspective on the Japanese American experience during World War II, including a discussion of picture brides, truck farms, citizenship concerns, life in internment camps, and the 442nd Regiment. Photographs of family, camp life and Japanese American soldiers enrich the narrative. It is a useful aid for learning about the Japanese American experience in the mid-twentieth century.
