By The American Geographical Society

New York: The Society, 1915.

First edition.

Enhanced with a generous bounty of striking illustrations, charts, tables, maps, and photographs on quality black-and-white plates, and with one fold-out map of the routes taken.

A well-researched study of the geographical excursion taken across the country, mostly by train, and into parts previously unexplored by geological surveyors and geographical historians.

Contains details of the trip itself, information on persons taking the trip, the terrain, the populations, regional weather, agriculture, environment, and so much more spelled out in wonderful detail.

From one coast to the other and back again by differing routes, these educated men made fastidious notes, calculations, and observations.

Plenty of information on various deserts, and Yellowstone and other parks.

Faint damp drop stains to the outer upper page edges, minor rubbing and soiling to covers, else very good plus in burgundy cloth with gilt embossed titles to the front cover and to the spine; no dust jacket, as issued.

A handsomely bound vintage book in nicely well-preserved condition.

Small quarto, 10.25 X 7 X 2; 407 pages; index.
