Two vols. in one. 4to. 8 x 11.5 in. 94, [2]; 222 pp. With 11 maps (several large folding, double-page, colour), 25 photo graphic plates, text illustrations, diagrams. Contemporary three-quarter green morocco over green cloth, marbled endpapers, gilt lettering on spine (scuffing, edgewear, rubbing), still a VG copy, from the library of Senator Robert Jackson Gamble (1851-1924), former US Representative and Senator of South Dakota during President Teddy Roosevelt's administration. First edition of both these Geological Survey reports, including the detailed description of Copper River District by Schrader who was the first to detail and document the mineral resources, and the first published photographs of mining operations. Brooks, and the other surveyors in the expeditions of 1900 which continued the 1898 explorations were grueling surveying expeditions, and through their mapping were able to achieve accuracy which is still current.
