Erstausgabe
12mo. pp. 376 + [6]ads. 3 wood-engraved plates. original blind-blocked cloth (extremities bit chipped & frayed, some foxing to plates & adjacent leaves). First Edition of the English Translation of the most important source on John Jacob Astor's attempt in 1811 to establish the first American settlement on the Pacific Coast. Franchère, then in the employ of the Pacific Fur Company, was attached to Astor's expedition to the Columbia River to found a trading post at Astoria. His narrative describes the difficult voyage out in the Tonquin, by way of Cape Horn, and presents a faithful chronicle of events at Astoria from its founding until its surrender to the Northwest Company in 1813. There is much information relating to the growing rivalry between the two fur trading companies, the manners and customs of the Pacific Coast Indian tribes, and the traders' relations with them. Also included is an account of Franchère's five month overland return journey three years later, up the Columbia River, through the Rockies and across the Canadian prairies to Montreal. The work was originally published in French at Montreal in 1820, and was the major source for Washington Irving's Astoria. This English translation by Jedediah Vincent Huntington, edited by Huntington and Michel Bibaud, contains an additional chapter and appendix by Franchère, the latter providing further information regarding the fate of other members of the expedition.

New York: Redfield, 1854. 8vo, 376, (16, ads.)pp. With a frontispiece and two plates, with tissue guards, foxed. A very fine copy in publishers green cloth. Early ink signature and bookplate of Joseph Button 1854. § A five month trek through the Rocky MountainsFirst edition in English of Gabriel Franchère's account of Astoria on the mouth of the Columbia River. While the book chiefly recounts his extraordinary overland journey of five months through the Rocky Mountains to the Red River Settlement (later Winnipeg) and thence to Montreal, it is also well-regarded for the author's account of his early and important visits to Hawaii and Tahiti en route to the northwest Pacific.Franchère's narrative was first published in Montreal some years previously; this edition was prepared for the American public by the clergyman and sometime novelist Jebediah Vincent Huntington who patriotically proclaims the book as 'the only account by an eye-witness and a participator in the enterprise, of the first attempt to form a settlement on the Pacific under the stars and stripes.'Franchère was a member of the party sent out by John Jacob Astor on the vessel Tonquin to found a fur trading post at Astoria, at the mouth of the Columbia River. The account of his three year stay, his inland travels, the transfer of Astor's company to the North West Fur Company of Canada in 1813 and subsequent actions of the British, forms a detailed and important document in Canadian history. Additionally, the outbound journey of the Tonquin is included, in which Franchère gives a good account of the customs and political situation of the Hawaiian islands as well as a biography of Kamehameha I.The work is referred to as in the text as the "second edition", which is slightly misleading: the earlier edition referred to is actually the original French language edition published in Montreal in 1820.Howes F310; Sabin 25432; Smith 3244; Streeter 3691 Tweney 21; Wagner-Camp 16:2.
