Description:
Austin; (1987): Texas State Historical Association. Quarto. 3 volume reprint of the 2 volume set. Illustrated in color and in black and white like the original. Emory was primarily responsible for the cartography and his map is essential in determining the Gadsen Purchase. Volume I begins with his Personal account, then describes Lower Rio Bravo. From mouth of Devil's river to El Paso del Norte. Sketch of territory acquired by treaty of Dec. 30, 1853. The original costs of the set caused Congress to limit the set by two-thirds. Fortunately, the Texas State Historical Association was able to print the complete set with the map leaving no omissions. A fine set bound in 1/4 dark blue cloth over orange cloth, spine lettering gilt.

Description:
Washington, D. C.: A. O. P. Nicholson / Cornelius Wendell. Very Good. 1857, 1859. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. William H. Emory was appointed commissioner of the United States and Mexico Boundary Survey following John Russell Bartlett, who was MIA from the survey upon Emory's arrival to assume his appointment.

In addition to helping to clear up the boundary controversy, Emory's accounts were important in noting that the deserts of the southwest were not an agrarian paradise, and his team assembled a wealth of natural history and anthropological observations. This report is also notable for the illustrations, with many plates of scenery, plants, animals, and in…
