Item description from seller

Ex-library. First Edition. No. 493 of 550 copies. Original publisher's red cloth binding with gilt lettering on spine. Top edge gilt. 6 3/4" x 9 3/4." Pages lii, [3] 4-277, complete. Fifteen additional pages in back list the names of Society officers, Members, and Subscribing Libraries. Preface and Introduction in front. "Appendix A: Supplementary Documents," "Appendix B: Biographical," and Index in back. A few library marks present. Pages are clean and intact overall but have whiteout on a library mark on front pastedown, numerical ink stamp at bottom of Contents page, a few small stains on front and back pastedowns and first and last few leaves, age toning, and slight bumping to fore-edges. Covers are clean and intact except for slight darkening, light rubbing and fading, faded spot on spine from where a sticker used to be, slight wear to extremities, and a subtle skew in the binding where the front cover leans toward the fore-edge. Binding is loosened along the gutters but is still strong and holding. A Very Good copy. Volume X in The Hudson's Bay Company Series, a subset within The Publications of the Champlain Society series. This volume contains the transcription of a dispatch originally written by George Simpson (c. 1792-1860), the famous Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) administrator. This document records Simpson's second transcontinental journey to the Pacific which took place from 1828-1829. During this trip, Simpson first stopped at York Factory and then took the Peace River Route to the Columbia River. "Appendix A" contains many supplementary documents associated with Simpson's account. The supplementary documents are categorized into four categories, "The China Trade," "The American Boundary: The Columbia River Department, 1824-27," "The American Boundary: The Foreign Office, 1828-29," and "General." Front colophon: "Five Hundred and Fifty Copies of this Volume have been printed. Fifty are reserved for Editorial purposes. The remaining Five Hundred are supplied only to Members of the Society and to Subscribing Libraries. This copy is No. 493.".
