Prairie and Rocky Mountain adventures, or, life in the west. To which is added a view of the states and territorial regions of our western empire: embracing history, statistics, and geography, and descriptions of the chief cities of the west.
Columbus: Segner & Condit, 1867. Thick 8vo, pp. viii, [9]-763; engraved frontispiece, 13 wood-engraved plates; original full sheep, black morocco labels lettered in gilt on spine; some scuffing but generally a very good, sound copy. First published by subscription in 1857 the book went through a number of editions. This particular edition has more than 120 additional pages than the last listed by Wagner-Camp. Based on the information in the book on Minnesota it is safe to say that subsequent editions were regularly updated and that each superceded the last. See Graff 4462, Howes V-43, and Wagner-Camp 312.
