Over the Plains, on the Mountains, Or Kansas, Colorado and the Rocky Mountains: Agriculturally, Mineralogically and Aesthetically Described (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Over the Plains, on the Mountains, or Kansas, Colorado and the Rocky Mountains: Agriculturally, Mineralogically and Aesthetically Described

During the excursion, I took full notes of everything that fell under my Observation, and also of facts elicited from conversations with those familiar with the Mountains; not with the remotest intention however, of perpetrating the infliction of a book upon the patient public, but for my own gratification and satisfaction.

After my return home, I wrote out a few pages of the notes for the Sunday number of one of our leading dailies.
