Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book documents a 19th-century reconnaissance through the Yellowstone River's headwaters and surrounding mountain ranges. The author, accompanied by a team of scientists and Native guides, explored territories that had previously garnered little attention from Western explorers. The author's detailed accounts of the expedition offer insights into the region's geology, wildlife, hot springs, and geysers, while also describing conflicts with Native tribes. The author also records the expedition's efforts to secure territories for mining and expansion, placing the work within the larger context of the westward expansion of the United States.
