Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Special Edition. [Westernlore Press], [Los Angeles], 1959. Facsimile edition. 4to (12 1/4 x 9 1/4"). 120pp. Blind-stamped Black pebbled cloth with gilt title on front board and backstrip. Folding map frontispiece. "Route from Liverpool to Great Salt Lake Valley" is one of the most important publications devoted to the Mormon emigration. This original 1855 edition was produced by a young convert, Frederick Piercy, and Samuel Richards, who was then the president of the Liverpool Mission president. They envisioned a travel guide for English converts who wanted to make the trek to the Salt Lake Valley. Piercy was a gifted artist and engraver. He made a special trip to America in 1853 to make sketches for forty-five black and white plates that illustrate this volume, including views of New Orleans, Natchez, Vicksburg, Nauvoo, Council Bluffs, Laramie, Fort Bridger, and Scott's Bluff. This facsimile edition was produced by a Los Angeles publisher, but without indicia. Condition: Very good; minor shelf wear, toning to front end papers.

First Edition
Condition: Very Good. First edition. viii [1] - 120 pp. With the frontispiece folding map by F. D. Richards and all engravings and woodcuts present. Folio [31 cm] Rebacked in red leather with gilt bands and gilt stamped title on the spine. Original marble boards, with underlying boards exposed along the edges. Sprinkled edges. New gray endpapers. Hinges reinforced. Ex-library, with a single library label on the front pastedown. The front flyleaf has several minor tears to the fore-edge, and there are light tide marks (the majority of them small) in the margins of the plates. These marks occasionally just begin to bleed into the images. Caption title of bottom engraving on plate facing p. 44 trimmed close. The celebrated map shows the Utah Territory, outlined by hand in red, with its various counties; the Mormon trail is shown in brown and blue. In this map, Utah still includes Nevada and shows up as the only important Territory of the Great Basin. Fremont's routes are marked as well. The work was issued with 9 woodcuts and 30 engraved plates; all are present in this copy. There is a small pencil tick-mark next to the title of each of these on the list of plates. Lacking the tissue protectors. Scarce in any condition. A collection of engravings of the most significant landmarks and points of interest on the Route between Liverpool and Great Salt Lake City, such as "New Orleans," "St. Louis," "Camp at Keokuck," "Ruins of the Temple at Nauvoo," "Room in which Joseph and Hyrum Smith were imprisoned," "Wall against which Joseph Smith was placed and shot at after his assassination," "Council Bluffs Ferry & group of Cotton-wood trees," and "Great Salt Lake City in 1853." The book also includes portraits of prominent Latter-day Saints, including Joseph Smith, Hyrum Smith, Lucy Smith, and Brigham Young. Extremely high quality illustrations made from the drawings that talented young artist Frederick Piercy made along the trail. Bibliographer Peter Crawley states that "Route from Liverpool ranks as the most beautiful book published by the Latter-day Saints." Wright Howes refers to this work as "One of the most elaborately and beautifully illustrated of western books," and Carl Wheat called the Richards map "one of the most illuminating maps of the West". Wheat further declares, "This is not only an important map in the history of Mormonism, but is in every sense an important map of the West, giving as it does a carefully drawn picture of that entire area. Practically nothing is shown in the whole of New Mexico, including present Arizona, but for regions to the east, west and north the map is accurate and reasonably detailed." Wheat closes by claiming, "The map was excellent for the period." Originally serialized in fifteen issues starting in July of 1854, this impressive volume was the brainchild of young convert Frederick Piercy, and Samuel Richards, president of the Liverpool Mission. They envisioned a travel guide for English converts who wanted to make the trek to the Salt Lake Valley. Piercy (1830-1891) was a gifted artist and engraver whose beautiful work fills this volume. The overland journey of the Piercy party was made in 1853. Starting from New Orleans, the party proceeded up the Mississippi to Saint Louis and Nauvoo, back to Saint Louis, and then across Missouri and Nebraska to Wyoming, and over the South Pass into the Great Salt Lake Valley. The woodcuts and engravings that illustrate this work provide a rare visual glimpse of the overland trail and the Mormon trail west to the valley of the Great Salt Lake. Crawley 1070.

First Edition
4to., (12 x 9 4/8 inches). Folding engraved map of Utah "and the Overland Routes to it, from the Missouri River" with original hand-colouring in outline, 40 steel engraved portraits and views on 30 plates, wood-engravings in the text (one or two mainly marginal spots and stains). Original half green morocco, gilt (backstrip nearly detached). "One of the most illuminating maps of the West to appear during 1855" (Wheat) First edition. The fine engraved plates include views of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Natchez, Memphis, St. Louis, Nauvoo, Joseph Smith and his Fort Laramie, Great Salt Lake and City, Brigham Young, and local landmarks along the way. "The following Work was originated in 1853, by a desire on the part of many of the latter-day Saints to possess a collection of engravings of the most notable places on the Route between Liverpool and Great Salt Lake City. [Piercy] made a journey to G.S.L. City and back to obtain original sketches. and in order to render it not only ornamental and interesting, but really useful, it was arranged that notes should be written upon the respective States and Territories through which the Route lay" (Preface). With an appendix of statistics related to Mormon emigration to Utah this work becomes not only a travel guide, but a history of Mormon migration, especially of English Mormons to America. Piercy arrived in the United States via New Orleans, after which he traveled north up the Mississippi to St. Louis, stopping as he says in Nauvoo to view the ruins. He followed the Mormon trail across Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, and over the South Pass into Great Salt Lake valley.
