Omschrijving

An Overland Journey From New York To San Francisco, In The Summer Of 1859 is a travelogue written by Horace Greely, an American journalist and editor, and published in 1860. The book details Greely's journey from New York to San Francisco, which he undertook in the summer of 1859. The journey was made overland, and Greely chronicles the various challenges and adventures he encountered along the way, including encounters with Native American tribes, harsh weather conditions, and difficult terrain. Throughout the book, Greely provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes he passes through, including the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, and the deserts of the Southwest. He also includes observations on the social and political climate of the regions he travels through, providing insights into the tensions and conflicts between settlers and Native Americans, as well as the growing divide between the North and South in the years leading up to the Civil War.An Overland Journey From New York To San Francisco is a valuable historical document that offers a firsthand account of the challenges and experiences of travel in the American West during the mid-19th century. It is also a compelling and engaging read, filled with colorful anecdotes and descriptions that bring the journey to life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
