First edition. Two Volumes. Limited to 500 sets. Maroon cloth, titles stamped in gilt on the spine, xii, 333 pp., and v, 277 pp. Frontis portrait of Herbert E. Bolton in Volume I. Preface. Index. In 1930, Professor and western history scholar, Herbert Eugene Bolton was elevated to the office of Vice-President of the American History Association. On the occasion Bolton's "students" wanted to honor him by preparing a collection of historical writings to present to him in 1932 on the occasion of his Presidential address. In an effort to prepare a study of more lasting value, rather than simply a series of essays, a 2 volume documentary collection was prepared. The first volume deals with the northward advance of the frontiers of New Spain, while the second volume studies the Anglo-American westward movement. Bolton's students include many well-known scholars of Western American history including A. P. Nasitir, William H. Ellison, Rufus Kay Wyllys, LeRoy R.

The essays include studies of Spanish New Mexico, the Spanish occupation of Louisiana, the annexation of Texas, and Pike on the Upper Mississippi. A near fine, clean, tight, bright set housed in the publisher's original slipcase.…
