From the introduction: "Captain John Charles Fremont, one of the earliest Government explorers of the Rocky Mountain region and the Pacific Slope, was born at Savannah, Georgia, in 1813. Becoming a civil engineer in the government service, in 1842, he explored the South Pass of the Rocky Mountains, ascending in August the highest peak in the Wind River Range. This has since been known as Fremont's Peak. In the following year, he explored Great Salt Lake.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No work has appeared from the American press within the past few years better calculated to interest the community at large than Colonel J.C. Fremont's Narrative of his Exploring Expedition to the Rocky Mountains, Oregon, and North California, undertaken by the orders of the United States government. Eminently qualified for the task assigned him, Colonel Fremont entered upon his duties with alacrity, and has embodied in the following pages the results of his observations. The country thus explored is daily making deeper and more abiding impressions upon the minds of the people, and information is eagerly sought in regard to its natural resources, its climate, inhabitants, productions, and adaptation for supplying the wants and providing the comforts for a dense population. The day is not far distant when that territory, hitherto so little known, will be intersected by railroads, its waters navigated, and its fertile portions peopled by an active and intelligent population."
