Description
Denver: The Old West Publishing Company, 1959 Book. New. Hardcover. First edition. Although not indicated, limited to 1,250 copies. Designed and printed by Lawton Kennedy. Edited by Dale Morgan. 221pp. Frontis portrait, 3 maps (2 folding), folding chart in rear pocket. Bibliography, index. Red pictorial cloth, gilt. A very fine copy with printed dust jacket. Jacket is well worn and spine-darkened. An important overland diary that describes the journey from Independence to Sacramento, by way of South Pass. The chart provides a complete summary of all known South Pass overland expeditions, with dates and destinations. The two folding text maps were drawn by J. Goldsborough Bruff and were previously unpublished. The work includes a biography of Pritchard by Hugh Pritchard Williamson. "This overland diary certainly ranks as one of the most important, not only because of Pritchard's observations, but also because of the scholarship of editor, Dale Morgan. Pritchard, a veteran of the Mexican War, set out from Petersborough, Kentucky, on April 10, 1849, followed the California Trail, and reached Coloma on August 13... Pritchard went on to describe life in Coloma and the wet season. Forsaking mining, he superintended stock near the Cosumnes... Pritchard's meticulous descriptions are enhanced by his identification of dozens of overland outfits... Morgan furnished an invaluable essay on journals contemporary with Pritchard's. Morgan's annotated bibliography of 'every known diary on the northern overland trails in 1849,' and the majestic chart, serve as essential reference tools" (Kurutz).

Salt Lake City: Western Printing Company, 1936. First Edition. 128pp. Octavo [23.5 cm] Green grained cloth with a blind stamped pioneer motif and the title in a gilt panel on the front board. Near fine. Bookplate on the front pastedown. The printing of this book was limited to 350 numbered copies, this is copy 114. Caleb Greenwood was a giant figure in the early West. From his early days along the Missouri River as a trapper until years later as an octogenarian he piloted the Ide Party over the Sierra Nevada in 1845, Greenwood was involved with many of the great happenings that shaped the Western history. This book deals with his early life in the fur trade, his important role in the overland emigration to California in 1844-1845, his subsequent contribution as one of the more important trailblazers and guides, his part in the relief of the Donner Party, and his activities along the American River after the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill in 1848. Howes K. An uncommonly nice copy of this work. Howes K57 Charles Kelly (1889-1971) was a western historian of note, writing the first (and best) book on Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch. He also wrote books on the Hastings Cutoff (Salt Desert Trails) and the fur trade (Miles Goodyear and Old Greenwood. Kelly also served as the first superintendent of Capitol Reef National Monument in Southern Utah.
