Description
San Francisco: The Grabhorn Press, 1932 Book. Fine. Hardcover. One of 500 copies printed by the Grabhorn Press. 48pp. Colored facsimile from an 1837 lithograph of San Francisco. Cloth-backed marbled boards, paper labels on spine and front cover. Fore-edges of endpapers with major offsetting. A fine copy. Treasurer of the Willamette Cattle Company, Edwards arrived in San Francisco on February 29, 1837. He had originally come to Oregon in 1833 with Captain Wyeth's party. This day-by-day narrative ends on September 18, somewhere near Mt. Shasta, as the company attempts to reach the Willamette Valley with 729 head of cattle. His account of the six months spent in the San Francisco Bay Area is among the most important early descriptions. Also considered one of the first western cattle accounts. [Grabhorn: 172]..
