Description

Heading:
Author: Crawford, C[harles] H.
Title: Scenes of Earlier Days in Crossing the Plains to Oregon, and Experiences of Western Life
Place Published: Petaluma, CA

Date Published: 1898
Description:
[vi], 186 pp. Frontispiece photo portrait. 20.5x14 cm (8x5¾"), original cloth over thin boards, front cover lettered in gilt, chemise. slipcase. First Edition.

A member of the Hadley party, Crawford started across the plains in April, reaching Oregon in August, 1851.

The book, as noted by Mintz, is "somewhat crudely printed" and similarly bound. Cowan p.149; Graff 911; Howes C870; Smith 2098; Mintz 109; Soliday I, 652; Streeter 3203.
