Synopsis
Translated by Fray Angelico Chavez, Edited by Ted J. Warner Western History The chronicle of Fray Francisco Atanasio Dominguez and Fray Silvestre Velez de Escalante's most remarkable 1776 expedition through the Rocky Mountains, the eastern Great Basin, and the Colorado Plateau to inventory new lands for the Spanish crown and to find a route from Santa Fe to Monterey, California. Escalante's journal wonderfully describes every detail of the rugged and scenic country through which they journeyed, along the qualities and customs of its inhabitants. Working as far north as present-day Provo, Utah, the expedition finally returned south. An approaching severe winter and mishaps among the maze of the Grand Canyon forced the party to return to Santa Fe by way of the Hopi pueblos. This journal provides a fascinating account of over a thousand miles of wilderness exploration., Translated by Fray Angelico Chavez, Edited by Ted J.

    Condition as described, very well packaged for transit, competitive price, arrived much earlier than estimated, indeed before some items ordered at the same time from the UK, despite travelling halfway around the planet, so despatch time and carrier used also great. Highly recommended ebayer 👍

    Magnificent transaction. The set of books (1882, 2nd ed.) arrived today and I've never been so eager to thank a seller. I cannot say enough positively about all aspects - the books were a little better than described for 142-year-old items. Bindings tight, page aging/wear minimal. Price was fair, shipping swift. But what really knocked me off my feet was the fastidiousness of their packing - tightly sealed in plastic, then nestled in a complete custom-cut cocoon of protection. BRAVO! :
