Panama Pacific International Exposition.
Official Souvenir of Ground Breaking by President William H. Taft for the Panama Pacific International Exposition San Francisco 1915. October 14 1911.
Souvenir pamphlet 8vo colored printed pictorial wrappers illustrated 16 pp. Folded and creased down the middle with a little wear at the fold some minor rubbing to wrappers normal aging; otherwise very good. This is a scarce piece of ephemera commemorating the 1911 groundbreaking ceremony by President William H. Taft for the exhibition in the Golden Gate Park. While the purpose of the exhibition was to celebrate the completion of the Panama Canal it seemed to function more as a worlds fair held in San Francisco. It took over three years to construct and the exhibition ran from February through December 1915. There are a number of black and white photographs in the booklet including a double page panoramic view of the city of San Francisco. The activities of the ceremony are recorded in this pamphlet which feature speakers songs marches and what they had for dinner Blair-Murdock Co., books

The Oregon Trail a tale of trappers and tradershunterssettlersand Indiansreads like one of the great western novels of daring and adventure.In factit is one of the classic historical texts of itsor anytime. When the young historian Francis Parkman set out from Boston in 1846 to follow the famed Oregon Trailhe began a journey that was to enrich not only his lifebut the life of the nation.Recounting events that occurred as he travelled from St LouisMissourito the Oregon Territory and back Parkman captures conjures up a West in the midst of profound change. Jumbled togetherin the great westward movement that was then taking placeare people of every kind.A multitude of nationalities - French GermansMexicansCanadiansEnglishIrish - struggle to survive and prosper in the new land.Trappersfur tradershuntersand guides are closely observed practising their trades.The harshat times pitilesslife of the emigrants and settlers is starkly presented.The Indian way of life is portrayed as equally doomedat once tragic and extraordinarily stirring. As we witness American soldiers bound to conquer the Mexican Army and claim from them their golden landswe recognize how soon the Indians would be forced to relinquish a country of their own.Parkmanwho lived and travelled for a time among the Sioux Indianswrites vividly of a race and a culture that would suffer greatly from the taming of the West.

PASCOE, J. D.
The Adams Valley and Glaciers, Southern Alps of New Zealand.
8vo. 6 pages, plus map and photographic plates for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Recounting mountaineering expeditions as early as the Baker and Butler survey of 1861, the author's illustrated compendium focuses on two expeditions undertaken in 1934 and 1935 by members of the Canterbury Mountaineering Club, one of whom is the author himself. The unknown watershed of Mount Adams into the Perth and Poerua rivers was the question to unravel on New Zealand's South Island, resulting in fascinating discovery, climbing, and mapping. Herein are described specific glaciers, unnamed cols, glacial tributaries, and climbing adventures. Excerpt from the text: "The Main Divide of the Southern Alps between Canterbury and Westland is a chain of glaciated peaks linked with curious passes. The subranges are equally intricate and the whole forms a fascinating wilderness... The story of the exploration of the Southern Alps is long and eventful, and even in 1938 was not complete."
