About This Item
The cover boards have loss of cover material on the edges, the spine of the cover is missing the cover material and the back cover board is barely attached. The covers are therefor in poor condition. All pages and illustrations are secured by the original binding and none are missing. Maps no.1 and no. 2 are laid in at the end of the book. They may have been attached but are not at this time.
Overall this is a complete reference copy that needs rebinding. Wonderful and authentic account of exploration of the American West.

About RCR Books
For many years I sold antiquarian and other collectible books but retired from that endeavor several years ago. I still have a few books left and wish to divest myself of them. I will be offering them for sale over the next few months.
