Hardcover. Senate Issue. 691pp. Octavo [23 cm] Rebound in sturdy tan cloth. New endsheets and flyleaves. Good plus. The plates and pages are foxed, and there are sporadic tidemarks of varying sizes on the pages as well. 22 single-sided plates (views, botanical, fossils) and 3 maps (missing the large folding map by Charles Preuss, and the map at p. 247). John Fremont's expeditions of 1842 and 1843-44 were the most spectacular reconnaissance of the American West since Lewis and Clark. Performed under the auspices of the Army Bureau of Topographical Engineers, the expedition's published reports and maps brought a factor of dependability and trustworthiness that would aid American settlement of the West. Fremont's report was the most detailed observations of the western territories at the time. The country covered by the report was previously terra incognito--Brigham Young is said to have used both the report as a guide in bringing the Mormon people West. Utah was then part of Mexico and would first become Deseret and then Utah territory. One of the seminal works for any western or Utah collector. Howes F-372(Senate Issue). Wagner/Camp 115.2.

in the Year 1842, and to Oregon and North California in the Years 1843-44. Printed by order of the Senate of the United States. Washington: Gales and Seaton, Printers, 1845. First edition, Senate issue with all the scientific data. Octavo (9 x 5 3/4 inches; 228 x144 mm). 693, [1, blank] pp. Complete. With twenty-two plates and five maps, two of which are small folding and the very large folding map in the rear pocket. Publisher's vertically-ribbed dark brown cloth. Covers with blind-stamped borders and floral loops. Spine lettered in gilt. Some foxing and toning throughout. Cloth lightly rubbed and bumped. Binding a bit skewed, causing a crease in the spine. Pocket map in very good condition with just a few small fold-line splits. Still a very good copy of this important narrative in the original binding and with the large map in the rear pocket. One of the most important publications on the history of the exploration of the American West. 'On January 18, 1844, Fremont determined to cross the Sierra instead of turning eastward. Crossing over what is now known as Carson's Pass, he reached the San Joaquin Valley and turned north to Sutter's Fort. It was a tattered and exhausted outfit that arrived there on March 6th, 1844. Here he learned much about the conditions in California.' Later he crossed the Tehachapi Pass into the Mojave Desert. The large map is of particular importance as it charts hitherto unknown areas.
