Original publisher's black cloth decorated in gilt rebacked preserving much of the original spine front hinge starting endpapers spotted. First edition Senate and preferred issue. Probably best known as the engineer and architect of the Washington Monument 1859-1860 in 1857 in 1857 Ives was "promoted to first lieutenant and was named to lead an expedition up the Colorado River in order to develop potential routes of supply in the event of a war between the national government and the Mormon settlements in Deseret Utah. Ives's expedition included John Strong Newberry as naturalist the Prussian Heinrich Balduin M�llhausen as artist and unofficial diarist and F. W. Egloffstein as topographer. Ives purchased a steamboat in Philadelphia. The vessel was taken apart and shipped via the Isthmus of Panama to California and thence to the mouth of the Colorado River where Ives and the members of his expedition rendezvoused late in 1857. Ives and his men reassembled the steamboat and christened it the Explorer. They launched the ship on 31 December 1857 and set out on their journey of reconnaissance. They progressed northward for two months passing through Mojave Canyon and Bill Williams's Fork before the ship hit a rock on 5 March 1858. Following this setback Ives divided his men into two parties one to return with the boat the other to return by land. Ives led the latter group which consisted of Newberry Egloffstein M�llhausen Peacock three laborers the Mexican packers and twenty soldiers commanded by Lieutenant John Tipton. The groups parted company on 23 March 1858 and Ives's group soon entered the most rewarding part of their travels. On 3 April they had their first sight of what Ives called the 'Big Ca�on' what today is called the Grand Canyon. Ives recorded his reactions 'a splendid panorama burst suddenly into view . . . vast plateaus towering one above the other thousands of feet in the air the long horizontal bands broken at intervals by wide and profound abysses and extending a hundred miles to the north till the deep azure blue faded into a light cerulean tint that blended with the dome of the heavens.' "Ives and his men descended as far as they could that day and the next morning 4 Apr. 1858 they stood on the floor of the Grand Canyon. Spanish explorers had sighted the Grand Canyon in 1540 and trappers probably had seen it but Ives and his party appear to have been the first white men to visit the floor of this great natural wonder. Ives's party pushed on and visited Cataract Canyon on 12 April. On 2 May Ives divided his party again and led a small group to the villages of the Moqui. He and his men then pushed eastward and reached Fort Defiance on 23 May 1858 concluding their journey there. Their expedition had been productive in many particulars but Ives made a strange prediction in his report 'It seems intended by nature that the Colorado River along the greater portion of its lone and majestic way shall be forever unvisited and undisturbed.' The next century would prove quite the opposite to be the case" DANB. This is the official report. Howes I-92; Sabin 35308; Wagner-Camp-Becker 375; Wheat Mapping the Transmississippi West 947 948.

Inscribed to Benjamin Silliman. William Goetzmann calls Lieutenant Ives's complete report "The best by far of these individual reports.It is a long carefully written journal consciously literary but with a maximum amount of attention to scientific observation. John Strong Newberry's geological report which accompanied Ives's narrative is one of the best of the government geological reports." Goetzmann gives a full account of the expedition in Army Exploration in the American West pp.379-94. Includes these separately numbered parts: Geological Report. By Dr. John Strong Newberry; Botany. By Professors Asa Gray John Torrey et al.; Zoology. By Professor Spencer Fullerton Baird; and Appendices Inscribed by John Strong Newberry on the title page: "Prof. B. Silliman Jr. with the kind regards of J.S. Newberry." John Strong Newberry who was the naturalist on Ives' expedition up the Colorado River wrote Part III of this Report which deals with the Geology and Paleontology of the regions they explored. Ives' party were among the first white men to visit the floor of the Grand Canyon and upon their return it was Newberry who realized the canyon's geological significance and encouraged further exploration. It is likely that Newberry inscribed this copy to Benjamin Silliman Jr. a famous chemist and Yale professor whose analysis of "rock oil" in Pennsylvania in 1855 introduced investors to the potential of petroleum and led to the drilling of Edwin Drake's successful oil well on his property in 1857. Silliman also took on consulting activities in the American West in the 1860's and favorably reported on petroleum deposits in southern California as well as gold and silver properties in California Nevada and northern Arizona.
