Bound in half dark brown morocco leather and marbled boards; four raised bands and five compartments to the spine stamped with gold gilt lettering and decorations. Dark gray endpapers that look to be newer than the binding, though no other signs of restoration found. Gold gilt to the top edge of the text block. Heavily illustrated with full page and in-text black and white engravings. Some wear to the boards with a bit of rubbing along the edges and some abrasions to the leather on the fore and top edge of the front board. Previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown and signature to the verso of the front fly-leaf. Internally clean and an overall very good copy.

Original green cloth, water spot approximately 1 inch in diameter below the vignette on the front cover, boards showing on tips and some edges, hinges strong, text clean and unmarked, overall a very good minus copy. First edition. Zamorano Eighty 61: "A highly interesting book by the first man, probably, who ever walked alone from one coast to the other. The author, an amateur ethnologist, describes vividly the country through which he traveled. Of particular value are his descriptions of southern California. He walked from Raleigh, N.C., to San Francisco, a distance of 3,556 miles. So keen were his observations of the Indian tribes of California that his notes were published some five years later by the U.S. Department of Interior.Afoot and Alone appeared in but one edition, but it became so popular and was so widely read that it is today almost impossible to find a fine copy."
