‎Jessie Benton Fremont.‎

‎Mother Lode Narratives: The Mariposa Grant Stories.‎

‎Mariposa Heritage Press 1996. Paperback Second Edition. Edited and Annotated by Shirely Sargent. First Published in 1970 in a Limited Edition of 650 copies by Lewis Osborne. Paperback: Pictorial Wraps. Collection of stories by American writer and political activitist Jessie Ann Benton Fr�mont 1824 - 1902 wife of John Charles Fr�mont 1813 - 1890. Collection of short stories dealing with her years living in California on the Las Mariposas Grant. Mother Lode Narratives was published 1970 in a limited editon by Lewis Osborne. Since that publication permission to read/reproduce Jessie Benton Fremont's "correspondence with Elizabeth Blair Lee and her father Francis Preston Blair" held at Princeton Univ was granted to historian Shirley Sargent by Mrs. Lee's grandson Preston Blair Lee. This 2nd Edition in the form of annotations is enriched with the letters' descriptions of "day to day reality" which form a marked contrast with the "more dramatic" versions written later when the family was under extreme financial distress and dependent on Jessie Fremont's publication earnings. As a consequence of her studies of the family correspondence Shirley Sargent makes a severe indictment: "In the twenty-six years since the book's the 1970 Edition my regard and respect for Jessie Fremont has increased. The same cannot be said for my opinions of her husband." The narratives are: Chapter I My. Grizzly Bear; II Beseiged; III The House that Jessie Built Ms. Fremont's title was "The House that Jack Built"; IV Sierra Neighbors; V The Ball; VI Lost Boy; VII Camping Near the Giant Trees; and VIII The Camp on Mt. Bullion; followed by Afterword and Colophon. Illustrations include contemporary prints from the Bancroft Library at Berkeley California. Mariposa Heritage Press, paperback‎

Die Jesup North Pacific Expedition 1897–1902 war eine bedeutende ethnologische Forschungsexpedition in den nordpazifischen Raum nach Sibirien Alaska und an die Nordwestküste von Kanada. Der Zweck der Expedition war es die Beziehungen zwischen den Völkern beiderseits der Beringstraße zu erforschen. Die Expedition wurde von dem Industriellen und Philanthropen Morris Jesup gesponsert der unter anderem Präsident des American Museum of Natural History war und von Franz Boas geplant und geleitet. Die Teilnehmer bestanden aus einer Anzahl wichtiger Vertreter der amerikanischen und russischen Anthropologie und die Expedition hatte eine Anzahl bedeutender Ethnographien zum Ergebnis sowie wertvolle Sammlungen von Artefakten und Photographien. Die von Franz Boas geleitete Jesup North Pacific Expedition gilt heute in der Rückschau vom Organisationsaufwand wie vom Ergebnis her als die aufwendigste Groß-Expedition der letzten 150 Jahre. Neben zahlreichen Forschern aus Nordamerika waren führende Ethnologen/Anthropologen Russlands wie Jochelson und Bogoras beteiligt. Sie waren teilweise jahrelang unter strapaziösesten Umständen unterwegs. Die darauf basierende Publikationsreihe erschien zwischen 1898 und 1930 wurde relativ gleichzeitig verlegt sowohl bei Brill/Stechert  als auch beim ‚American Museum of Natural History ‚ AMNH und zwar in durchaus unterschiedlicher Zählung der Bände und Unterbände was zu zahlreichen Ungereimtheiten bei der Beschreibung dieser Bücher führte. So ist der hier vorliegende Chukchee-Band der Band VII Teile 1-3 nach der Zählung Brill/Stechert;  beim AMNH ist es der Band XI Vol.I-III.  -  Der Chukchee-Band von Bogoras gehört neben dem Koryak-Band von Jochelson Vol.VI bei Brill/Stechert;  Vol. X beim AMNH zu den großen Raritäten der Reihe seit vielen Jahren nicht angeboten keine Nennung im Auktionsverzeichnis JAP. unknown‎

‎Washington: Government Printing Office 1868. 39pp. plus large color folding map 23 1/4 x 44 3/4 inches. Original printed wrappers. Presentation inscription on front wrapper see below. Wrapper edges chipped minor soiling and tanning to wrappers spine partially chipped old vertical fold to pamphlet. Light foxing and tanning and occasional soiling throughout Map with a few small closed tears at cross-folds with no loss. About very good. This copy is inscribed on the front wrapper: "With Regards of James Tilton C.E." Tilton 1819-78 was then chief engineer of the Washington Division of the Northern Pacific Railroad. Thanks in part to his support for Franklin Pierce's presidential campaign Tilton was appointed the first Surveyor General of Washington Territory and served from 1853-61. Both the Tilton River and Fort Tilton near Fall City Washington are named for him. <br> <br> An important report to Congress by the Northern Pacific Railroad headed by Minnesota railroad magnate James J. Hill for federal aid to support the Railroad's expansion to the West Coast. The petition reviews the railroad's original charter printing with it a memorial from the NPRR's Board of Directors and supporting communications from military figures including Montgomery Meigs and Ulysses S. Grant. Since the early 1850s Edwin Johnson described by Wheat as a "visionary" engineer had been associated with the plan to build a railroad across the northern part of the United States from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Coast. In 1867 he was named chief engineer of the Northern Pacific and this memorial is a work of major importance for the history of the railroad. It includes Johnson's topographical survey of the route to the Pacific a discussion of potential problems that may be encountered and a detailed economic and military survey of the area in justification of construction. <br> <br> The exceptional large folding "Map of the Country from Lake Superior to the Pacific Ocean from the Latest Explorations and Surveys" was produced by the Colton firm in New York. One of the finest maps of the region to date it shows the area from Detroit to the Pacific well into Canada and south to about the 39th parallel. Johnson has drawn the route of the Northern Pacific from Lake Superior to Washington Territory where the line splits with one branch heading toward Fort Vancouver and the other to Puget Sound. Among the details shown on the map are the Pony Express route wagon routes and overland mail routes exploration routes and other proposed railroad routes the locations of Indian tribes mineral deposits military forts and much more. Wheat gives a long description of the map and remarks that "the detail of such a map defies cataloging." Construction on the Northern Pacific Railroad began in 1870 and was completed in 1883. Edwin Johnson did not see its completion dying in 1872. An edition of this report with the supporting documents and map was also privately published in Hartford. <br> <br> A significant early account of railroad expansion in the Northwest. We could find only ten copies listed in OCLC and this is the first copy we have seen in wrappers and with a presentation from an important engineer on the project. RAILWAY ECONOMICS pp.242-43.
