A propos de cet article

Original publisher's beige paper wrappers with staple binding. No date, circa 1928. 6 3/4" x 9 1/2." Fourteen pages, complete. Pages are very clean and intact except for light age toning, slight wear to extremities, and a tiny split at tail of spine. A Very Good copy. Sources of Northwest History No. 2. Part of the "Historical Reprints" series. "Reprinted from the Historical Section of The Frontier, a Magazine of the Northwest, published at the State University of Montana, Missoula. Vol. VIII, No. 2, March, 1928." This historical reprint contains an edited diary thought to have been kept by David or John Dinwiddie, emigrants on the Oregon Trail. H. G. Merriam notes in the Foreword, "The diary has been edited by Miss Margaret Booth, graduate student in history at the State University of Montana, under the supervision of Professor Paul C. Phillips. The original diary contains entries for every day of the journey but there are so many repetitions of purely routine activities and weather conditions that only those entries have been selected which give a picturesque account of the country and which are necessary to make the route clear." In his diary, Mr. Dinwiddie writes of his journey on the Oregon Trail from Indiana to Oregon. There are many descriptions of the natural scenery such as Chimney Rock, Independence Rock, Scott's Bluff, the Red Buttes, Platte River, Snake River, the John Day River, the Cascades, and Mt. Hood. Dinwiddie also writes of his and his party's interactions of Indigenous tribes such as the Nez Perce and Cayuse.…
