“Written with the genuine inspiration of untamed nature.”—_Tribune._

“A lively and well written account of divers adventures on mountains

and plains, deserts and rivers in the Indian Country.”—_Churchman._

“A series of graphic and apparently reliable sketches.”—_Albion._

“Agreeably designed and ably executed.”—_Home Journal._

“One of the few books from which we can obtain any thing like

accurate information of the character of the country between the

Mississippi and the Pacific. As descriptive of a race fast passing

away, and of the wild and wonderful country from which they are

perishing, and through which the march of civilization is forcing

its way, to the dazzling treasures of the Pacific borders, the work

is attractive, and is got up in a style and character of most of the

publications of Mr. Putnam. The cuts are very admirable specimens of

the high perfection to which engraving on wood has

arrived.”—_Democratic Review._

_Astoria_;

Or, Anecdotes of an Enterprise beyond the Rocky Mountains.
