Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the geographical and cultural landscape of California during the mid-19th century. The author, a seasoned explorer and cartographer, provides a detailed account of his expeditions through the vast territory, meticulously documenting his observations and findings. The book's unique value lies in its focus on the Great Basin, a region then largely unknown and considered a barren wasteland. The author challenges this perception, revealing a diverse and complex environment, complete with mountain ranges, fertile valleys, and even lakes, some of which are salty, and some fresh. He delves into the intricacies of the region's climate, vegetation, and native inhabitants, shedding light on their adaptation to the unique conditions of this land. The book also explores the potential of the Great Basin for settlement and agriculture, particularly highlighting the establishment of the Mormon community near the Great Salt Lake. In contrast to the Great Basin, the author presents a picture of the maritime region west of the Sierra Nevada, characterized by its mild climate, fertile valleys, and diverse flora and fauna. He emphasizes the potential for cultivating a wide variety of fruits and grains in this region, drawing parallels to the agricultural practices of Italy. Through his detailed descriptions and insightful observations, the author offers a valuable historical perspective on California's natural resources and the opportunities they presented for future development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780366372935_0
